Thanked: 1371Epic overuse/misuse of words
There are some words that are overused (in my opinion) and have lost their meaning...
Epic is the first that comes to mind... Epic is along the lines of awesome, iconic, and so many other words that were once meant to convey something truly extraordinary but are now used to describe something that is modestly above average.
There are others that really bother me (last year it was iconic, this year it's epic), but that is not the point of this thread...
What are the words that bother you?
Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
