What I don't agree with is bying a screwdriver with an ergonomic hello-kitty handle that massages your hands and soul (and certain vocal cords) by subsonic vibrations and claim that the experience of using it fully weights up the asteroid-shaped price.

That would be Features, Bob, not User Experience. If you can't tell UX from ... features then I'm not quite sure how the rest of your post is going to stand up.

What I can't understand is the people that like the "user experience" - a horoscope-like vague phrase that can blend into any kind of posh attitude - to describe what they apparently enjoy in a certain tool, brand or lifestyle.

Well, that answers that.
