Not so much the word itself, but is it truly worthless if it entertains you? It has entertainment value, so I'd argue that it isnt worthless. *shrugs*...

The word itself has meaning to me.

So glad you got to play this summer in an area as lovely as the one you inhabit.

Yeah. I hadn't thought of it in a while, but it is sort of an important concept, whether true or not.
