[Closed] Acceptable use of the word Stoked

So what would the person on the front of a tandem be if the person on the back puts in a lot of effort?

So many answers molgrips, most of them obscene...

OED definition is:

informal, chiefly [b]North American[/b]
Excited or euphoric:
when they told me I was on the team, I was stoked

In bold is the main issue IMO, we don't call them fenders, or sidewalks etc. so we should use excited or euphoric etc. and leave the old colonies to their 'funny' colloquialisms.

Remember this is [b]Great[/b] Britain and we do things proper 😉

If you were in the US and someone used the word 'fortnight' would you have a go at them for adopting Britishisms?

how about amazeballs, even worser.

plus the idea of seal failure "in the wild" seems like a fundamental insecurity I don't like much! Maybe I'll risk a set soon!

Stoked is overused.
So is schralp by STW staff at present.
Just say no.

my dad was a stoker in't war,strange but true
