Irritant of the week: Hack
It used to be that hack was someone breaking into a software system to do harm, steal information, or even just for fun. Then it began to include getting into one's own technological device and adjust it to do something beneficial it wasn't originally designed to do. (Before that it was a lousy sports player, or a nasty cough).
Now, it's used for anything new or different, or just something that person hadn't thought of before. Now we ''hack'' our eggs if someone suggested we cook them differently, or read about various ''life hacks', which mostly turn out to be things or ways to do things that the 23 year old who wrote the article never heard of before. Those aren't ''hacks''. No one is breaking into anything or doing an unauthorized upgrade.
This has been around for awhile, but I'm seeing more and more of it. Dang, please try to find a different way to try to sound cool.
