Don't just let that thought simmer. Expunge it with a comment.
Words that mean nothing. Is that cool?
“If I can use the same word to describe my time on the toilet, and use the same word to describe the feelings I have for my wife, then that word has lost its meaning.”
When you think about it, all we have to communicate with are the words that come out of our mouths. Then why do the words we use the most, actually mean so little.
Let me give you one example. We no longer can refer to someone as a “Star”. It means nothing. For that assignation to actually mean anything we have to elevate that person to the realms of the “Superstar”. Even that’s not enough; the highest stars can be even further elevated to “Megastars”.
But what so they mean? Nothing. And I still think that “nothing” means something.
I have put together a list of words that no longer have any meaning except for some lame emotion that may cause a slight upturning if the lips in recognition.
Cool
Nice
Sick
Wicked
Awesome
Amazing
Spectacular
Magnificent
Great
The best
Love
Gorgeous
Fabulous
This will be a growing list, so please call back and check for yourself.
citizenjoe has been around for quite a long time and when I say he has been around, I mean he has been around. He likes writing and enjoys hanging out with this motley bunch of characters.
Lionel Gherkin is a sad sack with good reason, the poor bastard. You can read why in 
Along for the ride is Shelby Wright. Shelby is ahighly respected and well-to-do-man-about-town. He is the group's cultural attache; its conscience but not really its heart. 
And let's not forget Brenda Spoon. The lovely of the group. She a humourous bone that'll grab you like a meat hook and then tenderise like a piece of steak. People tell me she's hilarious; and who knows, one day I may even laugh at them.
