The awesomeness scale
While talking to some online homies this weekend, it occured to me that I use the word "awesome" a great deal. In fact, I think I may have saturated my vocabulary with it, and have diluted it's meaning somewhat.
In an attempt to solve the weakness of awesome, the awesome weakness, I have come up with an awesomeness scale. Y'see, stickybuns, there are many things that are awesome, for example a new bike; free beer; having one of those days where you feel taller than you actually are; discovering new music that plain amazes you (Hybrid did exactly that, they're fucking extra-awesome so thanks to Nick from work for enlightening me); creating some genius graphics; being a ninja... They're ALL awesome things, but their awesomeness amount varies greatly.
I will, therefore, try to give a descriptive comparison for each awesome from now on.
If I created a website that the client loved straight away, without wanting to make changes, that'd probably be first time skydive awesome. When I get my new bike (not a motorbike, just a regular second-hand pushbike) fixed and ride it for the first time, that'll be free KFC for a month awesome. And if I won hundred quid on a scratchcard, that would be woken up with a blowjob awesome.
Me, Ryan and Audun? We're ninjas with the power to give mind-blowing orgasms just by looking at you awesome, which, incidentally, is exactly what we are.

Bahaha, you win.
Also, you could fix the problem by connecting awesome with other words.
Crazyawesome is obviously really awesome. Becoming president of Cornwall or meating the love of your life are crazyawesome things.
Weekdayawesome is on the lower side of the scale. It's still awesome, but not in any particular way.
I have the same problem with saying "cool", as I have been talking too much with the Welsh lads lately. Everything is cool these days.
I realise that my idea is basically the same idea as yours now.
Wooyargh!
See?
Ninja.
