   life hack:

   you can just say "websearch" instead of "google"

   don't internalize the brands' language

      @grainloom I agree but also think there is value in destroying a tradename/trademark by making it generic (e.g., kleenex is now included in many dictionaries as a generic terms that refers to ANY brand of facial tissue). IP lawyers hate this one weird trick (even though marketers probably love it, so I'm kinda torn, tbh).
