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!
Guy #1: Hey dude did you see the movie Gladiator?

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!

A word that is so played out by tools, douche bags, and advertising agencies to describe pointless crap that you can simply decide that someone is not a waste of space if they do not ever use it.
I have never heard of you using that shizz homey. That's why you're still down! You're the opposite of epic. Oh damn, I said it so please punch me in the face. I deserve it.
