Here at National Defence Headquarters, I spend my workday in jargon heaven where perfectly sensible people converse entirely in catch-phrases. Inured as I have become to this bullcrap, I still flinch every time I hear the traffic report on the radio: "Traffic going westbound on the Queensway ..."

TRAFFIC GOING WEST, you tautological twerp! Or WESTBOUND TRAFFIC ON THE QUEENSWAY, perhaps.

BUT NOT BOTH IN THE SAME DAMNABLE PHRASE!!!!

There. I feel better.
