I vote for "crafted."

Crafted beer.
Crafted vacations.
Crafted microwave dinners.
Crafted particle board furniture.
Crafted weight loss.

Please.

Running a close second are "optics" and "empowered."

I'll see you on "crafted" and raise you with "tremendous."

"Fake news" soon to be supplanted by "alternate facts."

I like to stay about 20 years behind the times, so I overuse the word "Dude".
