A business euphemism for "the reason I'd like you to think I'm useful."
My value add on this project is to leverage best-known-methods (BKMs) to focus on strategies leveraging core competencies moving forward synergistically to achieve our mutual business objectives.

Someone who craves Facebook status attention.
Sam's got Facebook-ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder).
She's often starting her day with something like "Having a bad morning and it's only 8am" and nothing else hoping for a deluge of sycophantic friends to reply "Oh whats up hun?"

Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder.
Yes, an actual disorder. There are several variations and it is often waved off as a "rumor made to sell Ritalin" by the ignorant, arrogant, or some frustratingly ludicrous combination thereof. As a teenage girl with a fairly severe case of this myself, I can honestly tell you that this is a real disorder with real consequences and real problems that have to do with brain activity.
Also, Ritalin is *not* the solution to everything, and from me that's saying something, since it did do a lot for me. However, Ritalin without family counseling, general tutoring and effort from all sides essentially does nothing. Besides, there's some bad side-effects as well; hell, the meds I'm on right now do wonders for my concentration but have made me twenty-two pounds underweight, as an example.
Girl's ADD is also different than Boy's ADD. Girl's ADD often goes unnoticed because of societal gender differences in early childhood. We're not as jumpy or wild physically, so people think we're just shy or typical daydreamers or even typical girls being girls. However, there really are myriad cases of girl's ADD which are undiagnosed.
Adult ADD is also not a myth. An overwhelming majority of people who "grew out" of ADD were really just misdiagnosed; it can be confusing, as ADD often accompanies LD's and other neurological/physiological/psychological disorders. Therefore, most Adult ADD is present, because a lot of people from the 70's and earlier were never diagnosed. ALternatively, it is part of America's insulting trend to blame everything on it.
In short, this is dispell rumors that ADD isn't real, and also to please request that those who are not knowledgeable AND those who don't have anything at all and are just bullshitting to get out of something respect those of us who do have ADD. America's generalizing has made a lot of us uneasy about our futures now that everything bad is wrongly blamed on it.
Furthermore, only 16% (!!) of the population actually has ADD, and some sources even say 6%.
So shut your ignorant mouths about us. Let us do the talking.

Online stores typically have customers construct before they pay a list of all the items they want to buy. This list is called a shopping cart, in analogy to real-life supermarket shopping carts, so the command to add an item to the list is typically "add to cart".
By extension, the phrase can be used to mean "I want it".
Once I found the right brand, I clicked "add to cart".
And they have a machine that can make whatever food they want out of thin air. Add to cart!

A question posed to mock someone's short attention span (ADD stands for Attention-Deficit Disorder). In other words, "Are you always distracted this much?"
John: "So he turns around and slaps her and--OOO LOOK AT THAT BIRD, IT'S HUGE! Gee, birds are amazing..."
Jane: "Uhh John, ADD much?"
