I think I’m noticing a trend with English words:

  • “cool” used to mean “a bit cold” but now it mostly means “good”
  • “awesome” used to mean “inspiring awe” but now it mostly means “good”
  • “fantastic” used to mean “fantastical” but now it mostly means “good”
  • “incredible” used to mean “unbelievable” but now it mostly means “good”
  • “amazing” used to mean “inspiring amazement” but now it mostly means “good”
@kasdeya "ultimate" used to mean "last" but
@ricci @kasdeya "epic" as an adjective used to mean "of or relating to an extensive narrative poem celebrating the feats of a deity, demigod, or hero" but
