Some words never get old. Douche, is one of these words. Fuck, is another one of those words. I think anyone who caught the season finale of Entourage last night will agree the best line of the episode was E’s “Yeah, Fuck you”. These words always have their place, are a great insult and a staple of most everyone’s daily vocabulary. Okay, most everyone who visits hostilism that is.

Some words need to die. Over used internet cliches/memes are the worst of these words. Memes are like Napster, they are great, until you are out and about one day and overhear someone in line at the grocery store discussing it.  Fuck, its mainstream, its about to get shutdown. Lars Ulrich will be at your door soon. Tubgirl, goatse, both were great. Lolcats, Rickrolls, well they are about all the internet can muster these days since the internet is now mainstream itself. Anyway, what was I talking about? Oh right, words that need to die and join “pwn” and “b0rked” into the depths of internet hell only to be relived years later through the bash.org archives.

• EPIC
• FAIL

You fucking worthless words are next. Just go away already. People are putting EPIC in front of everything, if you say EPIC more than once a week as an adjective, it probably wasn’t EPIC now was it.

People put FAIL on the stupidest shit these days. Do they do it because they cannot think of a better caption? I’ve seen countless images labeled “FAIL” that actually are pretty inventive or something I would think to as a success. Take this one for example.

Funny – Not Funny

Notice how much better the original is. (Sidenote: I was surprised to learn that our favorite chacha veteran L0x was not behind this). The next time you see the word FAIL plastered over an image in somethingawful’s thick white image macro font that has become the staple of shitty image captions… Ask yourself, three years ago would this have even made sense? Would you have laughed at it then? I know the answers to both those questions and so do you.

So EPIC, and FAIL, you are on notice. Go away, no one likes you. You belong on the WoW forums and in Elementary school halls for the rest of existence. Get the fuck off of my internet.

On to some more trendy shit, this director sxephil on YouTube is actually pretty good. Props to his douchebag of the day section of his videos. Catch him at PhillyD.tv. Don’t watch it too much or you will grow tired of his reptitive editing style. I think I’d like to pick out a douchebag of the day today. My douchebag of the day is anyone who configures a blog, slaps some half assed skin on it, and leaves the “validate my xhtml/css” links on it when they have well over 100 errors on them. Would I dare link this blog to that? Obviously not, but the links on the bottom our forum do work, because well, I actually tried over there.
