Bitterball

"Bouncing" the Bitterball is to repeatedly email or text a friend, complaining about a recent breakup or betrayal. It usually involves "defriending" and painful details of cruel or hateful acts on the part of the "other half" of the breakup.

Sorry for bouncing the Bitterball at you again - but she just defriended me on FB and dumped more of my stuff on the front lawn! Can she hate me any MORE?

Downsourcing

The corporate practice of replacing competent personnel with cheap labor that will produce an inferior product, which sounds good on paper for about the first fiscal quarter.

Then management will throw good money at consultants to cover their mistake.

Colleague: hey, I heard you were let go by BBD&O. What happened?
Copywriter: I'm a victim of downsourcing. They found some dumass kid that can’t finish a sentence to do my work for half the price.
Colleague: Yea – I’ve seen some of his copy. Jeze – he couldn’t write his way out of a paper bag!
