epic
A word, whose meaningful definition(s)and correct applications are now obscured and have been raped to death mostly by
the 25 and under crowd. It has been overused as "the"
catch phrase used to describe a situation, person, event, movie, taking a shit,etc. The abuse and birth as a catchphrase has its origins among
avid gamers and pretentious English majors.

A word that is so
played out by tools,
douche bags, and advertising agencies to describe pointless crap that you can simply decide that someone is not a
waste of space if they do not ever use it.

noun. Good, great.
adjective. Totally cool.
It used to refer to a very specific type of poem, like The
Iliad or
The Odyssey. Then came the movie version of Lord of the Rings, arguably an epic itself.
The movie's popularity introduced the word to the ignorant public. Soon hack video game "journalists" were using the term as a synonym for "fantasy," which did not help preserve the original definition. After years of corruption, the word is now an even more annoying synonym for "totally cool, dude!"

The "not" of
the 2000s. Something that is okay to say this year but if you say it next year will just get you looked at weird, like if you wear to go out in public with a
fanny pack or wearing overalls with only one strap
buckled. Used to approve of anything positively. Only momentarily, of course. Often piggybacked with "fail" as "epic fail". Another reason for other socities to despise the ineptitude of the human beings within ours.
Example:
"Epic" video game
"Epic" female
"Epic" clothing
"Epic" haircut
"Epic"
poser metal band featured on
Guitar Hero.
"Epic" anything else that comes
to mind.

truely amazing that it deserves it's
story to be told for years to
come.

Swedish twins, kicked 12
marine's asses, invented
the wheel and then got stuck in a tree."
"Fuckin' epic, mate!!!"

Used to describe something very
imposing, impressive, or extraordinary. Commonly coupled with words such as "fail" or "win". Something that is epic can be extraordinarily awesome, or extraordinarily
blunderous. Although
the word's definition has been warped by the internet population, something that is epic is usually something that can be remembered for a long while. "Epic" is commonly misused because something that is supposedly "epic" is actually rather unexciting and not out of the ordinary.
