A politician was talking about how politicians or political movements go through four stages which he designated as fascination, admiration, disillusionment and contempt. And I thought, well, those stages seem to occur in other walks of life as well. Maybe it's some kind of natural law of society.
@sumudu I was joking, Sumudu. It’s actually Age-related Macular Degeneration. I made a joke of the name because it reminded me of the pop group O.M.D. (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark).
My mother has an eye/vision condition called A.M.D. which stands for Age-related Manoeuvers in the Dark.

I'm getting sick of the overuse of the word super. Everything is super nowadays isn't it?
'I'm super happy'.
'It's super exciting'.
'It's super bad'.
What's wrong with good old 'very' and all the other words in the vocabulary that people used to use? I want super superannuated.
