Epicity: (n) pronunciation: E-pi-si-ty

Definition: A noun that is used in a statement that describes the "uberness" or, "epicness" of a situation or object. "Epicity" can only be used when referring to the "uberness" or, "epicness" of something. it may only be used in positive connotation. this means that one must use this to state an uberness/epicness that at least must be over 8 in a scale of 0-10. In a more ideal sense, it would be 9; therefore putting the stating (statement of approval) at, or higher than 90%.

Epic

A word that used to be used to describe a book, a movie or other work as timeless, great, and meaningful. Is now used by douchebags who combine it with "win" or "fail" to describe everyday things.

CORRECT usage:

Guy #1: Hey dude did you see the movie Gladiator?
Guy #2: Yeah man that was an epic movie!

INCORRECT usage:
DBag #1: I forgot my wallet so I had to go home and get it.
DBag #2: EPIC FAIL!

or

DBag #1: I found five dollars today.
DBag #2: EPIC WIN!
