RE: Fact

Comment comment by Anonymous on 14 December 2006

Dear groupie #2,

Why does everyone on this site like defining stuff so much? Since you asked: definition of great

Of note:

  1. Notably above average in amount, size, or scope
  2. Widely known and esteemed
  3. Exceptionally good of its kind
  4. Particularly excellent

I would say that 3 and 4 may apply. I don't know though as I've never heard him, but let us assume that they do. 1 and 2 definitely do not, especially when compared to the others on the list.

For just about every other guitarist on that list 1, 2, 3, and 4 apply. So, groupies, keep on rockin' but spare us the "facts."

Why does everyone on this site like defining stuff so much?

By asking how someone defines a particular word or phrase, we are ensuring that we both understand what each other means. But, agreeing on a meaning is actually fairly difficult. However, until it occurs, a debate at any substantial depth just can't happen.

definition of great

Actually, I think she was asking about your definition of greatest, not what is great. The term greatest implies they are better than every one else, period. This has nothing to do with being a groupie. So, the question, once again, is, better in what sense?

Well if someone wins more awards, I would think that would make them better.
