Does the hobby vernacular ever sneak into your RL?

I've actually been meaning to ask a similar question. I was out on a date with a guy I met in real life at a restaurant. He asked me out and we met for drinks.

So, during the date, the topic of girls "working the bar" at certain places came up. Nothing odd about that, but instead of calling them hookers, escorts, call girls, prostitutes, etc...he called them "PROVIDERS!" I've never heard that terminology in real life. Am I wrong to assume he's a "hobbyist?" Originally Posted by LilMynx69

Mynx....he has to be a hobbyist.

I have a male friend who is friendly with a provider that isn't local. (He doesn't know about me) He still refers to her as his "hooker friend" when she comes up in conversation.

My friend is a nurse, and when she recently mentioned attending a class for BLS (Basic Life Support) certification, my immediate thought was "you can get certified for that!?"

There's a little Asian place up in Arlington called the "Ho Ho Kitchen". One of these days, I'm going to stop in and see what's on the menu
I guess that the iPhone AutoCorrect feature is intuitive and learns from the user's history. At least it must be with mine. Now when I mis-type the word "the," AutoCorrect pops up the suggested substitution of "GFE."

I'm working with a woman in IT who has a "Certificate in Management" in enterprise data. Yes, she's verified CIM.
