What is Powerspeak?
1.
noun; inflated and often self-serving language used to highlight accomplishments and/or their importance; often used on resumes, during work reviews, and in work-related meetings
Dude A: Basically we packaged and repackaged advertising in way that would persuade some percentile of middle america to gaze upon its flickering beacons of weight loss and mortgage refinancing
Dude B: Is that the official description? Something tells me that didn't come from a company memo.
Dude A: well, that's just a superficial estimation
from within it's a well-oiled machine, an insidious, ad-serving force of nature, partly thanks to me
(is that a better display of ego?)
Dude B: Yeah. Way to rock the powerspeak.
