    Some of the funnier ones

    • Citi bankers described riots during the Arab Spring uprisings as "vox populi risk events"
    • The term "fee experience" to describe billing other entities
    • Someone wrote that EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxation, deprecations and amortisations) "de-grew"
    • The UK GDS (government digital service, who actually do a very good job) described website testing as a "cognitive walkthrough"
