If I ever say the word “user” again, immediately charge me $140.

Jack’s: Let’s reconsider our “users” , (via msg)

AMEN + Square has a venmo charge feature?

The term “user” by itself is bad enough, but add to that “generated content” and I know immediately you don’t know what you’re really talking about.

UGC is one of the uglier company terms that I hear far too often… they aren’t “users”, they didn’t just “generate” something, and it’s not “content”.
