I'm tired of "eclectic" and "peruse"
These two words are becoming so redundant and overused on home decorating shows and magazines, please can we come up with some new words? Also, every decorator or designer has to use the phrase "sort of" a thousand times when describing their creative work. Am I the only one who notices this?

Thesaurus time!
Instead of eclectic: jumbled, assorted, varied.
Instead of peruse: scan, survey, examine.

I am really annoyed by the constant use of transparency.

I am really tired of "meme", "synergy", "paradigm", and "level playing field." I could go on and on with words that need to retire for awhile.

Me too, but some people say I'm thinking outside the box. However, I think they're being surreal and not seeing what's coming down the pipeline.
