Attn: Everyone - “Ping Me” Does Not Mean “Email/IM Me”

Author: Admin | Files under Buzzwords, Corporate Life

Ping. verb

1. the act of checking the speed of Packet data sent and received on a network.

I propose a revolution: whenever the next corporate idiot wants you to send them an instant message and tells you “ping me when you get back to your desk” (or whatever), reply with “Ok, what’s your IP address?” Then perform an actual ping on him and inform him of his computer’s response time :D

One response. Wanna say something?

    Refer to Sarah Palin and her use of the word “refudiate”. Sometimes despite our best efforts, people create new words and meanings.
