Posts which wear out my scroll finger, not to mention the fucking scroll wheel on my mouse, without a fucking word of explanation or comment from the poster.

orientated
"O Oysters," said the Carpenter,
"You've had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?'
But answer came there none--
And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

I believe this is a common British usage, and not, as it sounds, like, say"combinated." Could be wrong.

Nothing wrong with orientated, a compass is orientated if it points NSE or W or anywhere else. What's the alternative? Oriented? WTF is that? Planted in the Orient?

Bin Obligated. What is wrong with Obliged? Seems someone took Obligation as a root, worked backards and got stuck at O'Bli'gated.

Damn merrycans think they can have their way with our words.
