There is a lot to be said for designating things as being "cool"; I think it imparts a level of praise and enthusiasm without being gushing or over the top in ones praise.

Anyway this is a pretty cool thread.

Here in and around Boston, everything is "Wicked!"

STILL???? Good God, that was going on when i was a kid living there in the early 80s :eek:

I will take 'amazing' over 'epic' or 'sick' anyday.

"Dude...'Captain America' was epicly bad....btw, thats a sick shirt bro." Ugh...where's the shotgun :rolleyes:

Technically wicked is used as a modifier and doesn't just stand alone, as in wicked cool, wicked amazing, or my favorite from Junior High growing up on Boston's South Shore: wicked pissa :cool:

I nominate wicked pissa, especially when used sarcastically with an eye-roll.

i plead guilty to using the word "awesome", been using it for so long its like second nature. sometimes i preface it with "wicked". perhaps "brilliant" is next? although i do like the idea of usung "crackin'". oh, so many words and so little time.

Shaka (SHAH ka) righteous
Radical (RAD ee koh) Extreme
Radical Out (rad ee hoh OUT) So radical that it's more than radical
Pumping (PUM peen) Going strong "The waves were pumping at Waimea today!"
Onreal (ahn REEL) To describe anything that gets your motor going.
Innahs (EE nahs) anything that's righteous
Good Fun... Fun is OK but Good Fun is waaaaaaay better!
Some Good is really good
