Oh my gawd, I remember the uproar over that! The way some people carried on, you'd think she'd called the pope a dirty name.

Good grief! So what? we'll complain all we want. it's people letting off steam and chatting, not plotting a bank robbery.

Amy says she climbs into her clothes. She tells us to "climb into" a new item. That is a strange one to me. Do you need a ladder to climb into your clothes? Well, QVC does sell ladders. It seems like Dan Hughes is always selling them.
OMG! Post of the day! Hilarious! thanks for the laugh :-)

I think they should get rid of the hosts. Let the vendor explain and nothing else.

I don't even watch that much and it's a constant refrain.
Could be worse--when I hear "pop it on" I change the channel.
How about "pop the collar"?

It's usually "a cute little " jacket, scarf, pair of shoes, etc.

I also think two of the hosts (SB and KS) need to quit with using the word " chic. " All it is is a sales pitch (insinuating "you" will look this way if you BUY this item) and they use it about every third word.

None of these terms bother me in the least,however when I hear "pop the collar" I go screaming from the room.

The problem is with QVC jargon, as you said. No host ever sounds genuine when they just go into 'QVC Speak'! 'Throw it on, stinking cute, take a tour, beautiful, beautiful', etc etc! To sound sincere, hosts must speak normally - at least for me! Can't we 'wear something', that may be 'pretty or youthful', or just 'look at the item'?? Hosts sound programmed!
