Annoying business jargon: don't call a cascade of filters a "funnel", e.g., N million ad impressions, 50% read, 2% clicked, 5% converted = 5N thousand sales. Dude, that's not a funnel. In an actual funnel, everything you pour into the big end comes out the small end. That's literally what it's for.

Tom Lehrer’s passing called up a high school memory—I had a chemistry teacher who offered extra credit to anyone who could memorize and perform Lehrer’s song The Elements. That was 50 years ago and to this day I can still recite it if you allow me a few minutes of mental rehearsal. RIP sir.
