Wordsmith

I hate the fact "wellness" is a word. I don't know how long it's been a word, but since it's been adopted as a staple of "corporatease" it's become a buzzword to envoke "sense of" calm (of course "calming sensation" would be to direct) whenever some bill of goods is to be sold. Sort of a vernacular valium.

If "wellness" get's to be a word, then so does "wussification".

wus·si·fi·ca·tion Pronunciation [wuss-uh-fi-key-shuh n]

–noun

1. The act of wussifying.

2. The result of being a wussy.

ie. The use of crappy benign words such as "wellness" are leading to the wussification of America as a whole.

Thanks for reading. Now, go check out the Unger Report.
