Going on and off tangents
I remember when my primary school teacher in grade 2(7 years of age) told me never to use the word "nice" because she thought it was such a terrible word to call something "nice". Which I can understand somewhat since it is a word that means being "pleasing and agreeable in nature" and she was quite the cranky person.
Anyway this story relates to a word I was pondering that I quite dislike and it could be nice's younger cousin. "To find pleasant or attractive", "to want or have" and "to feel about" is to "like". I'm just sick of hearing the word "like" to describe something or to feel about something. After writing this last sentence i realise the sentence before ive used the word dislike, so I am hypocrite myself. Anyway its not just that, it is also the way people use it to fill in voids in sentences while speaking "like there was this guy, like like", sorry I had to use the teenage girl stereotype.
I was reading Jerry Seinfeld's Sein-Language and ive discovered unfortunately that most of the jokes, if not all are from the Seinfeld show. Speaking of which ive obtained season 4 which ive been watching right now. There's not many shows which I can say I love, Seinfeld is one of them.
