Anna,
Can I redeem myself with a clean and serious post?
OneLook led me to the Free On-line Dictionary of Computing:
verbage <spelling, jargon> /ver'b*j/ A deliberate misspelling and mispronunciation of verbiage that assimilates it to the word "garbage". Compare content-free. More pejorative than "verbiage".
