A note to all Americans and many British people too:
If I tell you a piece of good news, the purchase of a new car for instance, it is probably not “awesome”. Likewise, if you went to a party/film at the cinema/music concert, then that was probably not actually “awesome” either. Stunts on a skateboard, snowboard or BMX are similarly not “awesome”:
Truly awesome things are:
The enormity of space and the universe
The depth and power of the oceans
The height and majesty of the Himalaya
…and other things of an equivalent scale. Exciting everyday events are not awesome, no matter how much fun they were. Truly awesome things inspire awe in the viewer, so there’s a bit of a clue in the name. Please find another more suitable adjective (or better still a small range of them).
Just thought I’d mention it
