The other day, one of the teenagers in my life was telling me something great about their day.
To show great, short winded, enthusiastic support, I snapped “Awesome!”
What I heard back was, “Oh no, you did NOT just use that word!”
“What word?” I asked.
“Awesome! You’re too old to use that word.”
-----Insert sounds of me laughing, HYSTERICALLY here!!!-----
Oh, right…. I forgot I'm past the age of awesomeness.
"Okey dokey, GOLLY GEE THAT SURE SOUNDS NEATO!” I said instead of the very efficient, but most appropriate word, awesome.
“Well now you’re just being sarcastic”, comes the reply.
YA THINK?????
Golly gee growing old sucks! I know I'm not past the age of suckiness!!!
