GAUNTLET?
"Throw down the gauntlet" seems right, and "haggard" == "GAUNT", but I don't see "net clipper" being "LET"?

My significant other got stung on the forehead by a bee and is currently in ER, her face swollen, bruised, she almost died.
Luckily I was close enough to hit the bee with my shovel!

Is the shovel ok?

Small dent but still functional.

you do know bee populations are falling, apparently if the bees die so do we.
so next time please whack the other side of the head to merely dislodge the bee.

Yes, but don't forget the multiple reports that bees' flight defies the laws of Physics, so they might not obey Newton's (cradle) Laws, either.

That was very thoughtless of you.
Blood contains rust, which could have ruined your shovel.

I'm getting very suspicious emails and messages whenever I changed my skype status. My gut feeling says,I'm being watched.

I don't see anyone watching you.

I've had a rough week with regards to marketing-speke.
I have three theories.
- People use marketing buzzwords because they simply do not understand what they are talking about.
- People use marketing buzzwords because it makes them feel like they are part of the marketing tribe. Speak how your identifying group speaks: do not be different and stand out.
- People use marketing buzzwords because they honestly believe it will impress their audience.
There's #4 which is "they copy and pasted" but I'm going to discount that one since it's not showing intent, rather laziness.
cheers

Yeah, people use marketing buzzwords because everybody else does.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

See, you're failing to open source your agile orchestration that containerizes your market-speak AI translator in the cloud ecosphere of peers facing similar scaling issues.
But then again, if you actually deployed such an AI, there probably isn't enough bandwidth and servers available to handle the load.

Unfortunately, it's all too often 1.
Why learn what you're talking about, when you can impress people with zero effort? Mind you, that's kinda what marketing is about, so those are the better marketers.Chris Maunder wrote: Speak how your identifying group speaks: do not be different and stand out
That's a precise antithesis of marketing, but it's where most MS users fall. This is the "marketing moron" group, of people who aren't capable of doing their jobs properly, but read enough "self-improvement"* books that they can fake it, and/or stab enough colleagues in the back to get by.
* Actually, it appears that "self-improvement" is a very apt terms for such books, because everyone I know who reads them needs a lot of improvement.
