The value of learning anti-shibboleths is underestimated. Identify them early, and you can save vast amounts of time. For example: find words like "webinar" that are only used by fools, then stop listening when you hear someone use them.

A shibboleth indicates that one is an insider to your group, as they are things only an insider would utter or do. Anti-shibboleths are things an insider would never utter or do, and indicate that one is an outsider.

There's also the co-shibboleth, which is a word you have to utter to remain outside of a group.
