    I hear you - 'epic' has been cheapened through overuse . The word 'epic' in the modern idiom is merely 'quite good '. My personal bugbear is 'defiantly ' meaning 'definitely'. The two words have different meanings. Oh, and 'bae' . Why is it necessary to lose one letter from 'babe' ? Isn't that just the height of laziness ? The word 'babe' is already slang, but even so... anyways, so I'm pedantic, but please. Predictive text is making people lazy. Rant over. K, bye

      bae = before anyone else; used to knockout the whole premature 'I love you' issue with something that is easy to say and conveys a strong bond. I'm not a fan of it, I just say I love someone, but that sentiment extends to a large number of people. Not everyone quite gets it. bae fixes that.

        Okay - it's an acronym. I didn't get that ! Thanks !
