Maybe it's just me, but the online gaming community seems to always pick one catch word to describe something that is good and then ends up overusing it to a point where the word loses all worth. Most recently epic has become the preferred catch word for the Internet masses. I'm here to say, it's time to move on. The English language is a very rich language and there plenty of words that can be used instead of epic.

To help everyone rid themselves of this word I have dug up an old favorite. Meet the EPIC jar! Every time you say epic, drop a quarter in the jar. I've already started.
So far this post has cost $1.25



... $1.75

I'm a big fan of Epic Software. Their products make charting and documenting, along with patient work flow management much easier......it's epic....

I'm inclined to agree with Masta, the word epic has lost its meaning. Now it's just another word for cool, amazing, tight, etc. Hopefully the rest of the internet will move on to a different word, or use a different variety of words.. like everyone used to before it became a popular, common used word. :(

I cringe when anyone says epic or fail in this context.

Oh, and fail, too. I'm able to stand people saying epic, but I find it extremely annoying when people say fail, especially when it's said by the same person all the time. :(

Is it because of wow that epic is used so much? I think there's a correlation between WoW's rise and the use of the word Epic.

I honestly don't think Ive ever described anything as epic, so you wont be receiving any petty cash/change from me. I do agree though.

What dose "/b/" mean? :-/
I never understood this whole 4 chan thing...
/b/ in the 4 chan and other *chans is the "random" image board. /b/ has a "No rules" policy.There is a lot of gore and overall adult content so if you're easily disturbed don't go there.

I don't think anybody likes /b/tards except other /b/tards.

We should rename to Epic Special Forces. Bet that the jar will be filled in no time.
