Redefining the English Language

[noobie]

One of my pet peeves is people using the wrong terms for something. Pachislo vendors are notorious for this. Here's a few terms that are currently being redefined:

One of a kind - Extremely common, but not something anyone would want.

Holographic - Transparent. A holographic display, according to a pachislo vendor, is anything that you can see through.

Stereo - Anything that produces noise. STEREO SOUND probably means HAS A LOUDSPEAKER.

Unique - Ugly.

3D - Computer rendered.

Don't get me started on their awful translations of the names of the machines and the terminology.
