Subject: Amazing

Posted by: houston1127

Has anybody else noticed that you can't watch more than three minutes of television without hearing the word "amazing"? Everything from a sale on Ford Fusions to meatballs are described as "amazing". It's very aggravating. I suppose the marketing research indicated that the word has positive effects on the consumer brain. It has has the opposite effect on my brain. I hear it and it feels like some has flicked me in the frontal lobe.

Especially when I hear a grown man say it. "Amaaaay-zeeeng!" **Shudder**

Haha yes, I have noticed it. It's just as bad in women's magazines, with everything from sex to nail polish being described as "amazing".

'Amazing'!... That's ok

The overused and inappropriately used word for me is 'iconic'

Amazing is OK - I still hear "awesome" in the series:)
