A-frigging-men ! One has only to look at the Hacker News feed. It's packed with new start-ups "disrupting" everything.

I launch Thunderbird and go "Here's yet another 'disruptor' hiring". Or "Let's revolutionize X". Come on (insert three exclamation points here).

The only thing this is disrupting is the power of that word. It got diluted, like every buzz word. And now everything is bleeding edge, disruptive, fantastic, agile and "beautiful".

Rainbows, and unicorns, and butterflies ! Oh, my!
