I myself stopped counting awhile ago.

First heard of in the 1950s(by the odd person).

JFYI, I have used a synonym for it on many occasions, gobbledygook.

As a final note of interest, there was(is) a board game called....

Baffle Gab | Board Game | BoardGameGeek

As a final, final comment, I have never ever used it(nor played the game). I have listened to both the English and American pronunciations of it and have now deleted any and all references I have of it.

Anyone who has ever worked in Tech has seen bafflegab in action. More commonly known as technobabble, this is how sharp computer salesmen sell incompatible garbage to suits who expect techies like me to make it work. It did not take the suits long to discover that they needed a tech to accompany them and shield them from slick sales propaganda and ask pertinent questions like is this compatible with our installed base?
