I mean who doesn’t like a good “yada yada yada”. I feel like more people should do that; especially at work. 😏

I feel like more people should use yiddish because they have some great words like shmootz and chutzpah and schlep. They just sound great and the meanings are wordy in english so a single word translation is great.
