I've witnessed plenty of examples that counter that. Again, I've witnessed plenty of example that counter that.
I hear awesome used in professional setting severywhere as its a real, not made up word and is in the dictionary. Swag is not. You can not compare the two.
I was sick of the word the first time I heard it. I never understood the appeal to it...it's lame IMO.
Silly words often shared in casual conversation. Not so much in the professional circumstances. Big difference. What constitutes a "real word?" D'oh was at one point not considered a real word until the popularity of the Simpsons gave it a definition. Other words like McJob also made into Webster's dictionary. As I'm typing, with the spell-check in place, d'oh and McJob lack a a red line underneath, indicating those words are part of the English dictionary. Philologists can give you better insight on the war of the words. And lastly, swag ISN'T a made up word. The definition currently used for it, as a trendy word. could be considered made-up, but is no different than the word faggot being used for something else.
Again, I've witnessed plenty of examples to counter that in the workplace. What qualifies as a professional environment to you?
Oh god, who would buy that, let alone wear it. I suppose at the time though, he did score the game-winner at the buzzer from 32ft to beat the Bucks. (108-105). http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/video/2007/01/04/VI2007010400441.html Where he said it...(last minute of vid). LOL @ his swagalicious sweater.
I never really understood SWAG even though my son uses it. I dont like it. But Awesome.... YEAH BABY!!! I use it all the time and I like that people understand that if Jay tells you something is awesome then he really likes it. I never use AWESOME in vain...
When asked what was his biggest weakness:- “It’s possible I’m a little too awesome.” - President Barack Obama. Campaign trail in 2008. The first time “awesome” appeared in the Oxford English Dictionary, in 1598, it was a description for someone feeling awe, rather than someone inspiring it. But it wasn’t too long before the now-traditional meaning made its first recorded appearance: “A sight of his cross”, wrote a Scottish Presbyterian sermoniser in 1664, “is more awsom than the weight of it.”
I think we can agree that people have different opinions. I say tomato and you say tomoto. I say its right and you say its wrong. I say up and you say down. No big deal. We are free to have our own likes/dislikes and there is no law in having a difference in opinion. At least not in the USA...LOL Just go with what YOU like!!! Its your life. Does not matter what others think. Uncle Jay has spoken...smile.
