The use of the word "incredible" other than to mean "not credible".

E.g. "The incredible hulk" is OK because it is not credible that somebody turns into a 7 foot high green monster when they get mad.

The worst ones are when people invent a word when there's already a really really common word that they definitely know about, that means the same thing.

Every day in my current job I hear people saying things like "it's a big ask" and "what learnings can we get from that?" and I just want to blurt out LEARNINGS? DO YOU REALIZE YOU SOUND LIKE ONE OF THE TROLLS FROM THE HOBBIT?

Is it too much of an askings for people to learninate.
