AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! A reckless disregard for games marketing.

I do often wonder how we got from A to AAA. Was there a AA? I think I missed it.

Couldn't agree more! B***ocks marketing-speak that barely has a justified place within an office, never mind to anyone outside of your organisation. AAA is a type of battery, not a way to say 'this is going to be a big game'. Sales speak for themselves.

Other management-speak phrases I hate are 'going forwards' (we're always going forwards aren't we?) and 'let's speak about this offline' (no, let's not.)
