A black hole is a mathematically defined region of spacetime exhibiting such a strong gravitational pull that no particle or electromagnetic radiation can escape from it. The theory of general relativity predicts that a sufficiently compact mass can deform spacetime to form a black hole. The boundary of the region from which no escape is possible is called the event horizon. Although crossing the event horizon has enormous effect on the fate of the object crossing it, it appears to have no locally detectable features. In many ways a black hole acts like an ideal black body, as it reflects no light.Moreover, quantum field theory in curved spacetime predicts that event horizons emit Hawking radiation, with the same spectrum as a black body of a temperature inversely proportional to its mass. This temperature is on the order of billionths of a kelvin for black holes of stellar mass, making it essentially impossible to observe.

Hate it when people say that

Mis phrases like "I could care less"

The phrase is "I couldn't care less." thus signifying that you don't care at all

If you could care less it means you do care even if it's just a little bit.

Does anyone play "management-speak bingo" in meetings?

Pick out the phrases you expect to hear, "blue sky thinking", " going forward"...you know what phrases you expect to here in your places of work by your grinning suits. Then, in collusion with the other players, work out a signal phrase when you win. But the phrase has to be as ridiculous as said management speak.

Obviously...

when used regarding something which is an opinion not a fact, just to suggest that nobody should ever disagree. Grrrrrrr

"Whatever!!" and then they think they've won the argument.

"I say it how it is!" Just a phrase to justify being a cunt.

"Does anyone play "management-speak bingo" in meetings?

Pick out the phrases you expect to hear, "blue sky thinking", " going forward"...you know what phrases you expect to here in your places of work by your grinning suits. Then, in collusion with the other players, work out a signal phrase when you win. But the phrase has to be as ridiculous as said management speak."

We call it bullshit bingo.

Win-win which relates they get their own way twice, in my experience.

"I need every bodies input!" which translates that your idea will be ignored, if its any good, it will be implemented at least 6 months later, whilst you're on holiday.

I think - personally - .... etc

If you're talking about yourself, it's already personalised. Everytime I hear the word 'personally' it's inevitably already a duplicated redundant addition to the sentence.

Most of the things in this thread are also dire.

"Mis phrases like "I could care less"

The phrase is "I couldn't care less." thus signifying that you don't care at all

If you could care less it means you do care even if it's just a little bit."

Americans are particularly bad at this, almost always getting it wrong.

'The likes of' - For some reason sports pundits (mostly), like to add 'The likes of' before mentioning someones name.

EG.

You need to look out for the big players in this competition, the likes of your Messi's and Ronaldo's.

Its just fucking wrong, there in one Messi and (currently) one Ronaldo.

Say the paragraph again but without the bullshit 'The likes of'.

Its fucking gets me everytime, right in the fucking japseye

Look - This word gets thrown in now before an answer when a lot of sports men and women get asked a question.

Ahhh look blah de blah.

Did a prove a point with a young work mate while travelling from Birmingham to Hoddesdon daily over 2 weeks... 1st week was speed limits and caution 2nd was max power and lunatic ... 2nd week was avg 7 min quicker except one day was hour slower due to traffic jam... only thing faster about it really was fuel consumption it doubled...

Usually,American's, who need to go to the "restroom." or take a "comfort break", when it's a TOILET, they need.

It's ok for Eddie Murphy, to call someone a "motherfucker", but TOILET, seems a no no word.

Giving it 110%. Apart from it being a physical impossibility you cant give anything that much focus. Besides all the background processing (breathing, blinking, bladder control etc) are you giving your job 100% while you sleep? While you are having a crap, while you are distracted and fantasising about a cracking set of legs....realistically you will be lucky to give any task 40%
