Awesome!

I was in my favorite coffee shop the other day, ordering breakfast.  When I told my server I would like wheat toast, he smiled and said, "Awesome."

This gave me pause.  The word sounded familiar.  I realized I had been hearing it a lot lately.  In a popular clothing store, I was standing next to a teenage girl picking out a blouse.  "Mom, isn't this just awesome?"  I had to turn and look at the awesome blouse.  It was plain white with a few butterflies.  Where was the awesomeness?
