I am as tired of hearing "curated" as I am of "artisanal".

Both are effectively becoming meaningless and set my pretentiousness detector on high alert.

Agreed. 'Curated' is currently being over-used to the point of parody. Any list of things made by a person is a curation.

One could easily describe a grocery list as a 'a thoughtfully curated selection of produce and pantry goods.'
