+14 The suffix "-ception" should not be used when describing a [thing] within a [thing]. amirite?

Completely agree. It's one of my pet peeves too. The movie is about the inception of an idea. That's what the title refers to. Your turducken is not "birdception".

You are the one who misunderstands. People use this term because there was a popular movie called ‘inception' that dealt with this concept. I want to follow you around until you use the term ‘groundhog day' in reference to repetition and then I'll jump out of a bush and be all "OH SO THERE'S GOING TO BE SIX MORE WEEKS OF WINTER? IF HE SEES HIS SHADOW!?!??".

What is not happening in your life that you even have the time and energy to think this, let alone type it out?

Whatever it is, he should probably find something better to incept into his brain than this

It's the same deal with adding -Gate to a scandal. Watergate was the official name of the hotel, it wasn't the name of a scandal followed by 'gate'.

It's just a short for something that feels like the movie, like kafkaesque.

I think your point is obvious and I've never heard anyone use "ception" in this way.

Where do you live? Because I'd love to live in a place where people don't use this annoying turn of phrase. I hear it all the time.
