I always need to ask, "what about it is technical debt?"
		I've gotten a variety of responses:  
- the abstractions are wrong  
- the performance is bad  
- the technology is out of date  
- it's undocumented  
- I don't know the tech
	
That last one in particular when someone told me, "It's technical debt because I don't know the tech," is when I knew the phrase had lost all meaning.
