Which is worse?

A tough day for the English language.

Pick the one you would least like to hear in a meeting.

Your coworkers.
In quotation marks.

Start a private league with your people. Keep the receipts, vote on the fluff, and find out who is having a truly exceptional quarter.

For the record

“Let's take a step back and double-click on the big picture.”

You know exactly who would say this.

Your people. Your rules.

League quotes stay private unless your commissioner chooses to publish an anonymous version.

A few useful answers.

What happens when I vote?

In public matchups, your pick helps rank anonymous phrases. In a private league, your group votes on the quotes you collect. The two phrases at the top of this page are just for fun; those picks don’t count toward any standings.

Do I need coworkers to play?

No. You can play the public matchups on your own. A private league adds your own quotes, people, voting rules, and weekly standings.

How do private leagues keep score?

Log a quote and name the speaker. Your group votes: cliché (1 point), jargon (3), or something truly original (5). Quotes that are not corporate fluff can be rejected. Commissioners set the rules and settle the close calls.
