Stop calling everything a pretzel

Seriously people need to stop calling everything a freaking pretzel.  For example a regular 90 on, frontside 270 out is not a pretzel.  Its a frontside 270 out.  I keep hearing people say "Nice pretzel, or all I can do is pretzel"  thus leading me to be confused until I figure out they are not talking about the real definition of a pretzel.  For something to be a pretzel you have to spin more than 90 degrees in both rotations.  Get it right kids.

man... I always thought that a pretzel was simply 270 on opposite 270 off, when did this all get twisted?
Or should I say.... when did this all get "pretzelled"?
