Epic.

ive never said 'epicness' but i say epic all the time

i never hear it anymore, never really did

im sick of the word legit being overused, people say it when it doesnt even make sense

none of those words are over used here. and whats wrong with epic? its a one of a kind word

there are some idiots who use the word in the wrong context, or they use it for something is that is not "epic" (omg omg that 10ft jump was like so epic). That shit pisses me off, and demeans the value of the word. That aside, there is a place for that word, it can be a word that can mean what almost no other can

pretty much^

Exactly. I never think its wise to retire a word, it only needs to be restricted in its usage.

the EPICNESS of this thread just overwhelmes me.

Before I even read this thread I already assumes (what i thought was going to be a story) was not epic at all.
