Overladen words of the year
Two words I can't bear hearing any more:
- Awesome. Only used by Americans. They use it when things don't quite totally suck. Then it is awesome.
- Community. Wikipedia defines the word as a social group of organisms. The big deal seems to be to form a community for project abc, join and then forget about it. Quite awesome.
Certain to pop up soon: awesome community.

Awesome = Awsome IS actually mentioned in the Shorter Oxford Dictionary. - In small print.
It is, I mean, you know, like "reverential, inspiring awe, appalling, weird" and all that stuff.
