not only have i said the word wicked in regards to things being cool or lame since i was about five years old, We central leatherstocking regioners are also fond of the phrase “minquiea.” italian we hear, supposedly means the F bomb or that stinks. we just used to say it a lot. and really stretch it out. “MIIkeeyyyyyahh!” that’s the phonetic on it.

I’ve been known to pick up stupid phrases from time to time…most of the time don’t even know where I get them from… usually get over them after awhile. Maybe after reading this Andrew will too?

Having just seen said person I can say I don’t recall the use of Wicked while falling 13 stories or walking about the ’showcase’. If you need to call a witness to the lack of Wicked use I do believe I would hold up in court.

Hmmm …. Wicked good or wicked bad? I mostly stick to “That’s just wicked!” when someone has done or said something truly evil and I need to indicate maximum approval or said action. Needs to be said more often, IMHO.

Worcester accented: wicked pissah awesome is the correct nomenclature. Maybe he’s a Rescue Me fan?

As someone who grew up in Maine, I can’t imagine the term wicked ever not being appropriate and excellent.

Wicked good post. Not many people in NH say “wicked” anymore. Used to, like in the late 80’s to mid 90’s? But yeah, it’s not in anymore.
