I would like to propose Anti-Awesome Day. For one day, no one would be allowed to say awesome. If someone says awesome, he or she must donate ten bucks to his or her favorite charity.

Recently, I went to a restaurant and ordered a burger and the waiter said awesome, really coming down on the awe part. How can a burger be awesome? How can all the things people say are awesome be awesome? We live in a world of awesome inflation. Things used to be good. Now they’re awesome. Awesome has lost all meaning. It would be like totally awesome if we were to have an Anti-Awesome Day.
