EPIC FAIL: Underresearch Techniques

Underresearch: the art of doing the bare minimum. Because who needs effort, anyway?

Techniques include:

• Doing the minimum amount of research, while still trying to sound smart.
• Using Google as a substitute for actual knowledge.
• Copying and pasting from Wikipedia, without understanding the context.
• Using buzzwords like 'synergy' and 'disrupt' to sound impressive, without knowing what they mean.

And for the advanced practitioner, try:

• Creating an elaborate PowerPoint presentation, full of charts and graphs, to make up for lack of substance.
