on a different blog, I wrote:
I want the word awesome back.
As in AWEsome. As in awe inspiring. As in oozing with enough awe to last you a week in a city.
I thought about adding a new suffix to the root, but "-ful" is already taken...for the fucking antonym! What's up with that?
I want "Wow, that was awesome" to once again be a very specific, flattering compliment, not a synonym for the generic "cool, dude!"
Got it? Good (not awesome).

On May 27:
Jon Stewart spoke about AWEsome on The Daily Show.
Coincidence? I think not. (Brilliant minds think alike.)
