Just don't do it

When you think about using the adjective 'very' don't do it. When you want to say something or someone is 'interesting' don't. Say it is .... stimulating. Say it is thought provoking for Christ's sake. Say it transmogrified you. Don't say it was interesting. That's not.

No. Nope. Not ever!

Use less words if you have to. Its not VERY quiet. Its quiet. Its not VERY loud. Its loud. No VERY bigs. Just big. That plane is big! Isn't that better than 'That's a very big plane!'?

Great isn't a great word either. Any word if it gets overused, wears out. Come on, you didn't have a GREAT time. You had a marvelous time. A wild time. A stimulating time! A time that was like no other.

I've tried really instead of very, and I don't like it, but at least its different.

I've tried huge instead of big, but huge is wearing out fast. Right now I like gianormous. And when did 'hugely' become an adverb?

I've tried awesome instead of great. Its really not good.

I like 'clean' and 'clear' as in they put on a clean show. Her voice was clear.

Let's use different adjectives. And adverbs too.

It would be better.
