I often hear people call the gas they suck in order to talk, \\\"oxygen,\\\" but then, I do spend a lot of time hanging around with people who like to put on pretentious aires but are very self conscious of their lack of scientific training. Perhapse this should best go in the Real Life or Troper Tales section of a technobabble related trope, such as Spock Speak?
I feel like I have seen fictional characters do the same but can\\\'t bring an example to mind....a recent episode of Ben 10:Omniverse featured an space-man dangerously assuming that our air did not contain nitrogen, as he kept hearing Earth natives refer to it as oxygen (\\\"an oxygen atmosphere,\\\" I assume), and then asserting that he was not to blame for the ensuing disaster, due to his being mislead--is this a suitable reference?
In any event, I have heard the word misused in the manner originally described, often, but I travel the circles of the pseudo-intelligencia, and they are desperate to use words worthy of their positions of authority.
I would not have commented at all, except that I keep placing replays here contrary to my intent, and am unable to figure out how to completely erase them save by replacing them with an apropos one.
