Okay, so you're in a conference room for a meeting. More than likely, it's the morning after the night before. You know what I'm taking about. You need an IV drip of Kona. The meeting is being conducted by someone that sounds like Ben Stein from Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The subject? Maximizing productivity. Yours.

Igloo Software polled 1,000 people to find the corporate business meeting buzzwords we hate hearing the most by percentage:

5. Synergy 33% - y'know, let's all get together and brainstorm and put our thinking caps on and stir up some awesome synergy!

4. Bring to the table 37% - write down some thoughts, I'll grab some silverware and we'll get Phil from accounting to grab some napkins.

3. Touch base 39% - keep your eyes on Glynn, he'll give you the signal to steal when Mauer bunts, touch base and then slide in to home - got it?

2. A lot on my plate 43% - What? Are we meeting at OCB again?

1. Think outside the box 49% - I'm sorry Chandler, did you kiss Joey's girlfriend again? Next time, think (wait for it) outside the box.

Heard any good/lame buzzwords? Share them in the comments.
