    I love corporate speak.

    Mostly for entertainment purposes, but I’ll admit that occasionally, I have to use it myself. I’d like to think I learned from the best.

    To share, I’d like to some of the best non-offensive, non-committal, non-admittance, non-informative quotes that pass through my feed reader. Have fun.

    “… includes stability enhancements that should take care of problems causing the applications to quit when launched.”

    I wonder what metric you would use to measure stability of an application that doesn’t even run. MTBF of zero is a very hard value to work with statistically. Too many div-by-z.

    “… trying to stay true to our initial goal which was to lay the core foundation for a multiple-release strategy for building out …”

    Can you guess which company that is?

    The iPhone 3G bundles released June 27 are not the only price plans available to customers, they are the high value plans that allow Rogers customers to use the device to its fullest and offer considerable savings over separate voice and data plans that exist in market today.”

    Here, “high value” and “savings”, refer $30/month for a measly 300MB data plan. Caller ID would be an extra $7.

      Even with these short quotes, my eyes glaze and I stop seeing the connection between words after about the second word.

      I should have known better and put a “not safe for thinking people” warning.
