amazing - it used to mean mind-blowing - now it means anything from "cool", to "surprising", to "meh". This word is so overused that I tend to ignore it and I stopped using it myself. Example: Person 1: "Did you do your homework?" Person 2: "Yeah" Person 1: "Amazing!"

love - it used to mean something deep, ultimate, and spiritual. Now it means "like". What is more annoying is when a girl says "I love you" to me, but she means as a friend(it happened twice, separate girls, and one of them had a boyfriend!! - I know they weren't serious because they say that to everyone). Jeez, have we run out of vocabulary to express our affinity to people?

(any swear word used as any part of speech) - this indicates a lack of vocabulary.

(any filler words such as "like", "yeah", "just", "you know" - NO I DON'T FUCKING KNOW, SHUT UP!)

probably - YOU MEAN "MOST LIKELY", NOT PROBABLY. SHUT UP or get to the point! !

really - NO, NOT REALLY

quite - quite what? quite strongly or quite weakly??? "Quite" means nothing, you are just adding an adjective for the love of adding an adjective

I'm gonna stop here, writing this pisses me off.

"like"

Really, like, the way everybody like just uses this word like every few words and it's not like technically that like grammatically wrong is just like totally annoying. Yeah.

It doesn't bother me if I don't think about it, but if I actively try to listen every time a caster (Day9 :3) says "like" my face explodes. Followed by my head, followed by my balls.

Words were, are and will ever be meaningless. Words are just a way to express meanings, reasoning, thoughts etc, and THEY are what counts.


So, words are meaningless, except for the fact that they convey meaning? in which case they have extreme meaning? I feel like you're just talking around in circles to try to make a deep point that's unnecessary.

You didn't get the point at all.

Words themselves are just meaningless successions of letters, it's what people make out of them that gives it a meaning. I could just randomly type any bullshit but it wouldn't have a meaning until I say so.
This makes words meaningless but the reasoning/thoughts etc behind it oh so more meaningful. Let's say, I create the word "hubbledub". Hubbledub doesn't have a meaning. Now, I want you to think that I love you whenever I say "hubbledub". Now it conveys a meaning, but it's still not very meaningful, as I could just say everything else.

It's what you do with words and how you interpret them. People even think different things when hearing specific words.

I'm not.... YOUR BRO!


Douche- used to be the French term for a vaginal cleaning instrument, now is used to denote anything undesirable.

I found no reference to the use of "reference" as a verb.

This blog disappoints me.

Really? Now all those soap gels that my my mom buys make sense....

Also hate is an overused word that has completely lost it's meaning,these days instead of hate I use the word Loathe to show my hatred to something or someone.

This has been happening for about a week. I've tried restoring to earlier points with no luck.

I will get randomly disconnected from the internet every 4-6 hours for about 5-10 minutes at a time. Sometimes I won't have any problems for several days. Some times I will get disconnected 10 times in a day. Restarting the router, modem, or my computer does nothing.




Random - a term used to denote that something happens without reason, definite aim or pattern, or in statistics when in a process of selection each item has an equal probablity of being selected.

Now used to denote anything we are not sure why is happening.
