Why do people always treat "computer lingo" as a subjective term? It seems to me that to most people "computer lingo" is any computer-related word that they don't know the meaning of. If you talk to most people, they think "Start button" is a normal, non-techy word. But if you start to talk about executables (a fairly simple term), people look at you like you're nuts (which you might be, but that's irrelevant). The only area I really notice this in is computers. Am I just missing something, or have you noticed this too. If not, what other fields are like this?
