I work for a business-tech publication, and one of the writers there used it in a blog post this week. I had to look it up to make sure it was spelled correctly and it stuck in my head.

Not here, anyway.

I saw it in the blog post here the other day. I had to look it up. I knew (roughly) what it meant, but I had no clue if spelling was right.
It's now my second-favorite word, after kerfuffle.
Original title of that famous Foghat song....
changed at the last minute in the studio when they figured out nobody would get it....
