Oh, they used the phrase "travel hacking"! How my heart springs with joy when I see such marketing terms! It's used by such intelligent people! It's so edgy and really makes me feel special and as if I'm doing something naughty.

...oh, wait: no, none of those things are true. Spending airline miles isn't "edgy". Or "hacking" anything. The only thing I want to "hack" (perhaps with a spoon) is people using that term for everyday activities.

You're so radical! A credit card app?! How do you manage to live life on the edge like that?!

About as edgy as 'fuel dumping' then?
