Exasperating! NOOOOOOOOO!
There are some words that are so hackneyed and trite that, when said, they’re not even communicating anymore.
I’m convinced that MY TORTURE explains the only possible reason they exist these days. Think bamboo shoots under the fingernails or a brand spankin’ new piece of chalk gliding across a blackboard (for any oldsters out there).
And here they are, ladies and gentlemen, in all their sordid glory, destined to live on in ignominy while they drive this former English teacher out of his ever-lovin’ mind!
“Out damn spot” on the collective soul of the English language! Begone, agents of despair: “AWESOME”, “ICON” and “LEGENDARY”. May you rarely cross my path ever again.
