Do you mean “awful”?
- kranner 7y agoNo, I meant "awesome" but "awful" is an even better example.
- injb 7y ago"awful" in this context reminds me of this famous story about Charles II (https://quoteinvestigator.com/2012/10/31/st-pauls-cathedral/ https://quoteinvestigator.com/2012/10/31/st-pauls-cathedral/) From the article: "When the excursion was complete the monarch told Wren that the new building was amusing, awful, and artificial. Remarkably, Wren did not feel insulted; instead, he was greatly pleased."
