"Going Forward"

[marmar]

If I hear one more person use that phrase I'm going to set my hair on fire......

:nuke:

That's all


(Someone on the AP radio news discussing the Chrysler-FIAT marriage used it - "I think this is the best deal possible going forward" or something to that effect)

1. "Going forward" and never looking back. It makes me sick.

:puke:

[ClusterFreak]

2. Same goes for "moving forward".

Just one more person. Just one more.

:puke:

[BlooInBloo]

3. It'll never rise to the level of "thinking outside of the box", but yah.

[Double T]

4. "Going forward" is idiotic corporate speak.

The latest corporate speak phrase used by the financial corporate idiots is "green shoots" and "flowers" to describe promising areas of the economy. If I hear THOSE terms one more time, I'm going to 'shoot' myself!

5. Oh Praise Jahaysuss!

I thought I was the only one driven up the wall by this. What is it about trendy phrases that take hold in the MSM vernacular that's SO annoying? A couple others:
"..brings to the table"
"..thrown under the bus" :banghead:

[Berry Cool]

6. It is definitely the latest empty corporate-speak fad

and like most of them, it means absolutely nothing. Where else are you going to go but forward?
