One we should all remember

One for all Chip Shop Award entrants to remember - wise words from the Father of Advertising, David Ogilvy:

Never use jargon words like reconceptualize, demassification, attitudinally, judgmentally. They are hallmarks of a pretentious ass.

(Thanks to Bill Bennett for the heads up)

Have you also noticed how some even invent their own jargon words?
