Mine is - Algorithm. Ever since people have learned some of the inner workings of how content is suggested to them, that became the new spammed word that easily got exhausted within the week of it being used.

Yeah, an algorithm does indeed pitch you things of what to watch or listen to. But there’s more going on than that, but people all the time just stop at that word and expect everyone to suddenly understand it. Sadly, most people just buy it at face value.

    Lol. Grapes. Wine smells like grapes.

    It is a great experience to have someone explain to you what you should smell, taste, etc. when you are drinking a wine varietal, but apart from that everything else is just fluff & marketing.

      I work in the grape wine industry but at home I make fruit wines. I always crack up when someone says this grape wine tastes like cherries or blueberry.

        That’s the fun thing about food (and wine especially). You don’t need to have the ingredient present for it to taste like that ingredient. I made chocolate chip cookies once that tasted like bananas, and I most definitely didn’t add bananas to them.
