Manifest?

So twice within a half hour Shawn used the word manifest. Must be the new buzz word for her instead of “ obsessed” . 🙄 Think I will just start shopping from the app instead of listening to this nonsense.

Manifest is being used quite regularly these days. It doesn't have anything to do with obsessed. It means to believe in something good happening to help it come true (rough translation). Yes it's a buzz word but she used it correctly tonight.

Buzz words sure come and go. Back in the 90s, anytime I heard the word synergy in a meeting I would feel like barfing. Started counting the times said or read in a memo to fight the urge. Cheers.

Imagine if she used it FOUR times …

I sometimes think that people watch QVC, not to shop, but to find something about the hosts to complain about. 🤦🏼‍♀️

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it.
For example, I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

@Oliveandes - nothing new about this word or the concept behind it.....With the new year here, its not uncommon to hear it. Try to keep up honey

You just took me back! I hated the word synergy too.

It doesn't take much to find something to complain about on Q.

People don't have to like what others like and that's ok.

@CalminHeart In the 90's I worked for state government. The word the powers that be started using was paradigm. We even had to sit through paradigm training. It had nothing to our jobs. To this day I don't understand what they were getting at with pushing this other than giving the staff development department something to do.
