Onboarding.

Nah, sorry D, but I maintain that in the context it is most often used, it is perfectly applicable. Not a great fan of verbing (creating a verb from a noun) but this one gets a pass.

His manner suggested that he genuinely thinks he's kind of a big deal. So no.

Actually, the thread title itself. It should be "Words THAT Annoy You Intensely." The word which, when not in a question, is used as a relative pronoun at the start of a subordinate clause and usually should be prefaced with a comma. As in, "Stevie G's words, which annoy you intensely, should be ignored."
