> In the first place, singularities-events correspond to heterogeneous series which are organized into a system which is neither stable nor unstable, but rather 'metastable', endowed with a potential energy wherein the differences between series are distributed... In the second place, singularities possess a process of auto-unification, always mobile and displaced to the extent that a paradoxical element traverses the series and makes them resonate, enveloping the corresponding singular points in a single aleatory point and all the emissions, all dice throws, in a single cast.

-- Deleuze, as quoted in Sokal and Bricmont's "Fashionable Nonsense."

Misusing technical terms in order to fake a veneer of intellectual respectability should be called out every time.
