All that Gen Z, Gen X, Millennial stuff bores the fuck out of me but there are plenty who love it. To be fair to Talkshite they know how to push buttons. Cunts.

Danny Oppenheimer, of Princeton, wrote an article entitled...

"Consequences of Erudite Vernacular Utilised Irrespective of Necessity: Problems with using long words needlessly"

... in which he showed that couching familiar ideas in pretentious language is taken as a sign of poor intelligence and low credibility (by the professors reading the students' essays).

Simon Jordan is a **** (obviously) and so is anyone else afflicted with the same pretentious behaviour.

Great reminder! I read an article about that yonks ago.. didn't he win a Nobel Prize for it?!

Also took me back to growing up in 'Yoom' (Hulme) in the early 60s.. we were always correcting one another when suspected sesquipedalian language was being used by one of our number whilst hanging around on street corners after dark, considering mindless vandalism and violence and the like.. that was how we rolled in them days..
 
I can honestly say I'd never heard of gen z till she said it.
And now you've said another gen x .
I must be old.

Spot on. When i was at the Poly (Didsbury campus) there was a lad on the course (a rag) who loved using long words and half the time he got tangled up with them and was using words completely out of context.
When it came to doing our final 10,000 word thesis, I got a B and he got a D.
He told me his tutor had said he used far too many long words unnecessarily - and in some instances incorrectly - and was down graded accordingly. He said he was told to use simple language.
 
Jermaine Jenas sacked? Seemed a nice bloke so that will be interesting.
 
Talkshite must know why he was sacked and they reckon it's ok. Lots of shite online about silly stuff because it's the BBC.
 
Alan Brazil was slagging off people who work from home last week saying its screwing the economy and cafes etc are struggling.

I will take no lectures on the economy from a fat w*nker who ended up bankrupt. Even if I went to the office 5 x a week, I still would not buy an overpriced coffee and sandwich each day.
