slang

There has been a general trend over the past 25 years or so to put positive meanings to seemingly negative words. I am not up on all the lingo, but some examples are: bad, wicked, phat, and whack.

Well, last night at dinner, my daughter came up with her own. We were eating a high class meal, to which she commented "This is nasty yummy!"(much in the same way you would decribe something as "wicked"). Now, unless I misunderstood that toothless grin of hers (or someone has actually told her what is IN Kraft macaroni and chesse) she was complimenting the chef. In slang, of course.

Yes, I make some nasty mac-n-cheese. Totally whack. And I am proud of it. :)
