this is part of the whole serialized "nu-golden age" of TV shit, but i hate "Big Bad" as both a phrase and increasingly as lazy in both idea and execution.

nomar, Saturday, 11 March 2017 20:25 (nine years ago)

Yeah what's the origin of that

wins, Saturday, 11 March 2017 20:41 (nine years ago)

Big Bad is a term originally used by the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series to describe a major recurring adversary, usually the chief villain or antagonist in a particular broadcast season.[1][2] It has since been used to describe annual villains in other television series, and has also been used in scholarly work discussing Buffy the Vampire Slayer.[1][3]

"Big bad" is so annoying but so is lots of Whedony stuff.

Robert Adam Gilmour, Sunday, 12 March 2017 00:21 (nine years ago)

SOP = please just say instructions
CONOPS = can we just say "charter" when that's what we mean
Work Instruction = please just say instructions
"Joint-" sorry, I have to ask you some questions before we continue

A lot of this stuff is newbies discovering internettish lingo and taking it for a spin.. "this" would have been ok 10 years ago. Even amazeballs would have been ok 10 years ago. OK maybe 15.
