On adjectives that are plain weird

Hello internet people,

Please, please don’t say ‘hive mind’ to address members of a mailing list. Or members of a BBS or the chat room or any group. It makes me think of an ugly brain-like creature with bees flying in and out of the grey matter.

Also, please do not use Latin phrases without fully understanding its meaning.
