Today I was again thinking about the word, "interesting". I tend to do this, a lot actually, ever since I had the discussion with someone years ago about the purpose and definition of the word interesting. Interesting actually has absolutely little explanation, definition or value. It is completely non-descript.
Here are a few examples:
That's an interesting piece of art.
The man was very interesting.
Your new plan is interesting.
Interesting that you say that.
So next time you catch yourself or someone else saying something is interesting, what are you REALLY saying?
