I have known companies that were entirely run on the stuff. C-levels and wannabe C-levels would spew it in every direction. It was simply a signaling mechanism that you were a company player. It was so patent that it could serve no other purpose. If one rotated it the correct way, it was not unlike a Monty Python sketch.
At some point I had a list of banned words, because they had lost all meaning, turning only into rest stop on a Markov chain road-trip. It simply wasn't possible to think with them, the Sapir-Whorf-Frankfurt Hypothesis.
