we are a litigious nation. o how we love to sue when things don't go our way. I think writers shd institute a court of their own. one in which a panel of peers cd put to death certain words.
my candidate for the first word in the docket is "awesome." my ancient college edition of Webster's defines it as "inspiring awe." you have only to listen in on a cellphone call by a young person at the grocery store or turn on a tv reality show to hear it utterd over & over. makes me cringe.

I say "totally" and "awesome" with abandon, although not usually together.
don't forget the men Maliboooo...
I gave up on all red carpet events. most award shows are bad enuf.
"Impact" used as a verb.
And to the dungeon with "impactful."
(P.S. The spider plant made me drowsy again today.)
Lord yes. I have two close relatives that just can't get through a sentence without the word "awesome." I may have to send them my dental bill for the appliance to prevent teeth grinding, should it get to that point.
evening news reports that at Alito's swearing-in today he used that A word. ugh...
