Someone appears after you mention them. "Speak of the Devil" is short for "Speak of the Devil and he shall come". It was believed that if you spoke about the Devil it would attract his attention. That's why when you're talking about someone and they show up people say "Speak of the Devil".
Speak of the Devil - look who's here!

Language designed to distance. Use of language which absolves the speaker of any real responsibility. Language used so frequently (these days) by politicians and managers (in business, industry and almost everywhere else).
Call centre:
"Your complaint was actioned last week and if you don't adjust your tone I will be obliged to release the call".
Customer:
Cut the weak speak...just give me a straight answer.
The act of talking about something, someone or a subject that the speaker knows little or nothing about as if they have great knowledge of it.
Jim dosen't know anything about women, anything he says is pure rookie-speak
Random words and names spoken in an effort to promote a sense of intelligence and creditability in the speaker. quoting an over abundance of names and references that are unverifiable in an effort to make you/your theory more creditable.
The strength of his argument was mere word speak.
