Default AMAZING wtf?

There is no way I'm the only one that reads a review or reply about a product and sees the word amazing and automatically discounts the validity of the response by 98% am I? Seriously kids look the word up before sprinkling it into your reviews and for the love of Cthulhu maybe use a thesaurus to find another word.

“As humans, we waste the shit out of our words. It’s sad. We use words like “awesome” and “wonderful” like they’re candy. It was awesome? Really? It inspired awe? It was wonderful? Are you serious? It was full of wonder? You use the word “amazing” to describe a goddamn sandwich at Wendy’s. What’s going to happen on your wedding day, or when your first child is born? How will you describe it? You already wasted “amazing” on a ****ing sandwich.”

I prefer the word Fantastic.

At work it usually follows after the word Fu***ing

I think Trump has spoiled you with all of the phenomenal adjectives he uses.

In boot camp they always used "Outstanding". I think I'm going to start using that from now on and save Amazing for the good stuff.

I haven't listened to any of his speeches so I have no idea one way or another. I do know I'd sooner write in the violator for president than vote for hitlary or the bern out.

He's got the vocabulary of a 10 yr old, with the exception of a few often used multi-syllable words that he uses in very short sentences to describe how he feels about things. Amazing, terrific, phenomenal, or tremendous when he likes something, disgusting, terrible, or horrible when he doesn't.

Example A: I love the Chinese! They are tremendous people! Tremendous!

Example B: It's disgusting what China is doing! Disgusting!

I see. Doesn't sound like I'm missing much.

I only buy things ARE described as amazing by anonymous reviewers on the internet. The more amazings, the better I say. And I certainly can't pass up any offer that includes "but wait, there's more" or "act now, supplies are limited!!!!!!!!"

Fawking fact right? The best combo is a review of any new product or part that the reviewer used once and declared as the best ever and that it is in fact amazing. Kids... hell most everyone is afraid to be negative about things out of fear they won't be liked. This is an issue I do not have, if your product sucks I'll tell ya.

Don't forget the part about never comparing it to anything else. That's what I always like to see.

"This is only my first rig but I can't imagine anything being better...it flat out works".

Or worse yet their first rig was a traxxas so even a turd red cat is the best ever.
