Used to describe something very imposing, impressive, or extraordinary. Commonly coupled with words such as "fail" or "win". Something that is epic can be extraordinarily awesome, or extraordinarily blunderous. Although the word's definition has been warped by the internet population, something that is epic is usually something that can be remembered for a long while. "Epic" is commonly misused because something that is supposedly "epic" is actually rather unexciting and not out of the ordinary.
This is a quagmire of epic proportions.
