A word, whose meaningful definition(s)and correct applications are now obscured and have been raped to death mostly by the 25 and under crowd. It has been overused as "the" catch phrase used to describe a situation, person, event, movie, taking a shit,etc. The abuse and birth as a catchphrase has its origins among avid gamers and pretentious English majors.

Get the epicnessosity mug.An epic nap is any nap which begins as an intended 15-minute to one-hour venture and ends as a 5- to 8-hour excursion through the valleys and mountains of the realm of sleep.
Additionally, if you have two major events scheduled in a day, and you take a nap between the two, causing you to miss the second of said events, this nap may qualify as an epic nap.
Finally, if you make plans with friends, but decide to take a nap before you go out, and then end up sleeping for an eight- or nine-hour period during which none of your friends can reach you and may begin to presume you dead, this may also qualify as an epic nap.

"Man, I was so tired after my final. I went home to take a nap, right? Fell asleep at 1, meant to wake up at 2, but ended up sleeping until 9! Epic nap."
"Man, I was so tired after my first final. I went to the library to get a nap before my second one, but I ended up sleeping through it! A custodian woke me up when they were closing the building. Epic nap."
"Nikki said she was going to go to the movies with us, but none of us could reach her. We started to worry that she might be dead or something, but it turned out she was just taking an epic nap."

Get the Epic Nap mug.In much the same way that "awesomesauce" modifies "awesome," epicsauce is the proper modifier to use when "awesomesauce" just isn't enough. It is epic to the power of ten.

Get the Epicsauce mug.The Epiphone guitar company was headed by Epimanondas Stathopoulo the the early 1900's. Later on, the parent company of Gibson guitars bought Epiphone.

Get the epiphone mug.also known as ma huang, is a popular dietary supplement in the United States and has been used for thousands of years in Chinese medicine. Ephedra is a compound ofnaturally occurring compounds that are found in plants. Manufacturers are required by law to declare the amount of ephedra in each serving. (25mg per serving, or 100mg per day)
2) substance now banned thanks to former Orioles pitcher Steve Bechler. Bechler, who will never be confused with fitness guru Jack Lalanne, died in 2003 of a heat stroke but was found to have ephedra in his system, along with a load of caffiene pills and pseudoephedrine. Because of his death and other 'claims', the gov is now in the process of banning ephedra in 3-2004. While some may argue in Bechler's family's side, some people casually miss these facts:
- although listed at 239 in the Orioles' media guide, when Bechler's ticker quit, he was 320 lbs(!!) (source CNNSi) at his autopsy.
- Bechler was not accustomed to the warm S Florida climate.
- he had a history of heart problems and a bad liver PRIOR to taking ephedra.
- he was on a liquid diet.
- it was revealed at the autopsy that Bechler was abusing ephedra. From the tox report, it was revealed that Bechler was taking at least 3 tablets per serving, possibly more.

1) I stocked up on some TwinLab energy fuel yesterday since the gov seems to want to take another part of my life away.
2)like anything in life, ephedra is effective when used in moderation. Steve Bechler seemed to think that moderation was 4 caplets per serving. Not that I would wish anything bad on those who abuse any type of substance, but because one individual (who was 80 lbs overweight, I might add) abuses a NATURAL SUPPLEMENT that has been around for 1000s of years, now we all have to suffer.
