I worked with a guy some time ago who was an MIT trained engineer. He had a real problem with the phrase "I hear ya, man."- which is a pretty common expression of agreement in California.

His response was always the same- "Excellent! Have you acquired me visually as well?"

I still laugh at that.

I wonder what he thinks about the alleged word 'doable'.
I heard Rush say it about 10 years ago. He brain farted and couldn't come up with the word 'possible' and he blurted out 'doable'. It seems as if I heard it everywhere after that. You know what I'm saying?
