There's something about professional jargon...
It might be the cool factor. It might be the perception of smarts.
Whatever it is there's no denying we like buzzwords.

Below is my attempt to display and explain (or obscure) the more pervasive 50 while having a bit of fun and doing it all in 6 words or fewer. Check it out!
There you go. These are my interpretations. If you wholeheartedly disagree with some I get it.

Buzz on my friend. Buzz on.
