I have only seen this word used on legal documents - mine!
It makes me feel uncomfortable - to say the least - but then virtually ALL legal jargon makes me feel the same.

nahiku888 commented on the word pastiche
only heard this word in reference to films --- by a so called expert ( He was a prof at USC film school ) ...and when no one in the audience quite got the definition correct, he made a couple sarcastic remarks - needless to say THIS did not endear him to our small community which is faaarrrr from Hollywood.

Every time I see this word, an image of one of those nuns I endured in high school pops up in my mind - NOT a pleasant image believe me!

Back in the olden days when Playboy Clubs provided gentlemens entertainment - the waitresses, also known as bunnies, had a bunny mother. - a housemother for "bunnies".

nahiku888 commented on the word {ingest}
as in ingesting footage into editing software - every time I hear "ingest media" I get a very uncomfortable feeling that the software is eating the video.
