People who say "awesome" this side of the Atlantic

My brother lives in Michigan and he calls everything awesome. He also listens to native American music and whale song and plays a didgeridoo.....

Why isn't there a "barfing up" smiley?

 

[Roadkill]

Isn't it a half-full compliment.... indicatiing some awe

Surely better to have ful awe....

I sometimes think there is a case of issuing all Americans with those ping pong ball style gags when they turn up at passport control.

Is there any reason why it couldn't be done?

Us Brits should start using "jolly spiffing, what ho!?" as our version.

Playing golf it's the standard cry for a stunning shot!

Surely it's "You're the man!". I've heard that a few times on US courses and during the Ryder Cup.

 

[Slowgrind]

I've heard "You choking dog!"

 

[ChrisKH]

"Awwwww bite me!"

[threebikesmcginty]

Isn't it the norm in Amerikee to shout 'in da hole'?
