Is the word overrated being abused? I'm glad to see these youngsters are learning critical thinking and all. But maybe we could give this word a little rest so it doesn't get hurt.

I think some of them might not know what it means.

God. Gay. Totally. Whatever. Suck. Cool. Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanocon iosis, etc. This is all very sad.

If the only reason you dislike something is because other people like it a whole lot, then you're a pretentious dick. And if you dislike it for other reasons, say them instead.
