as a general positive response / term of approval.

I want to get everybody saying "Brilliant!" instead.  With luck, we can make everywhere sound like Harry Potter.

Who's with me?

Yeah, awesome and amazing are badly overused. Brilliant...a bit less so.

I'd vote for "sharp" or "funky".

What about "groovy"? 

As in:

"What's up, jive turkey?"

"Nothin much.  Everything's groovy."

It's true, "funky fresh" is due for a return...

What about "ill".  Do the kids still say "ill"? 

As in "these phat beats are ill"?

Brilliant makes me think Doctor Who.

As does fantastic, which is another great word. ;D

Oooh. I'm guilty of overusing Awesome.

It's like a drug or bad habit, I swear.

I need to wean myself onto Brilliant instead. >_<
