• Mrdrawerguy commented on the word wicked-swix

  wicked-swix adj. undescribably awesome

  This one time, my brother and I were playing soccer and I was trying to describe how awesome I was at playing soccer. Out of nowhere, I said it was "wicked-swix" and it stuck ever since. It just rolls off the tongue and it's fun to say.
