Whatever happened to the english language?

I despair, I really do..

In the space of 3 e-mails I've been told somebody needs something "as
very ASAP as possible", they've since expressed their "Extreme thanks"
and now have ended the most recent e-mail "Take great care".. which
only sounds acceptable if read with a mafia accent IMHO )

I'm begining to wonder if sir.tony started teaching people to write e-
mails.

So, what's the most bizarre expression any of you lot has heard today?

 

"A weekly reboot to easier servers maintenance is planned to be
implemented on all the Unix box every Sunday at 6:30 am"

to be fair, this came from a frog.

"Let's progress this forwards."

 

Like it.

 

Something like "... thus ensuring voucherization universality".

To be fair it was at a geeky Java conference in the States.

I also got "educationalize" from the same conference. A great three
days for bullshit bingo.

Well, I could progress forwards and really push the envelope
in order to comply with your request, Ginge, but I'm
really not incentivised enough.

 

Must be a bummer to get fired by Ali G.

 

Our ODC lot constantly use the phrase "up gradation".

 

I once saw a packet of frozen fish that had "Grillable, Ovenable and
Microwaveable" written on it.[1]

[1] Though to be fair, it didn't claim to be edible.

 

"The dog ate the Portal".

 

"does anyone want any of these old porn videos before I chuck them in the
bin?"

 

Your what?

 

Wrong thread to get your grammar wrong in.

"Toby from The Key returned your call"

 

Or do you mean 'in which to get your grammar wrong'?
