E is for Egosurfing                    
 

Eco-imperialism: The practice of forcing third world suppliers to adopt (for them) ruinously expensive first world environmental standards, in order to maintain green credentials. (Funnily enough companies that do this rarely pay the same suppliers first world prices - but then that wouldn't be culturally appropriate [q.v.])

Egosurfing - keying your own name into search engines and visiting the resulting hits, to see how widely your fame has spread on the Net. See googling.

Educrat - a person who works in education but has never taught a day in their lives.

Emotional correctness - the self-censorship practiced by large swathes of the media since September 11th. 

Equity victimhood - the increasing belief amongst punters whose shares nosedive that someone (government, brokers, etc.) should compensate them for their losses.

Eurocreep - the process by which tourist spending and foreign income will result in the UK effectively becoming a dual currency economy with most businesses pricing and transacting Euros alongside sterling.

Extreme Cuisine: Culinary outlandishness in any form. Started with killer curries in the 70s, moved through offal and ostriches in the 80s and 90s. Now tends to involve dishes made with snakes and guinea pigs.

Extreme Tourism: The competitive desire to go to where nobody's been before - regardless of its merits as a destination - and popular amongst travelling times. Currently extreme tourists are eyeing up Iraq and wondering what fabulous experiences they can have with the remains of the Ba'ath party.
