I would love to hear from a mature person's perspective regarding the overuse (or not) of the adjective 'awesome'. I am aware of the word's informal usage, but I think it has gone a little too far. The relatively recent trend of everybody claiming that every object, mundane 'thing' and pastime to be 'awesome' is cheapening its descriptive value.
The Grand Canyon is an awesome sight. Witnessing and being a part of the birth of your first child, is an awesome experience. I have no doubt the Hanging Gardens of Babylon were also a magnificent and awesome sight. Pizza, Coffee, clothes and nights out are not awesome.
What do you think?
