Don't like 'bombastic' used to describe explosive games? Replace with 'bomblastic' on Polygon & Kotaku! Inspired by Triple Click. Inspired by episode 88 of the podcast Triple Click (https://maximumfun.org/episodes/triple-click/will-ready-player-one-ever-be-real/) where, about 37 minutes in, Jason Schreier complains about video game journalists' tendency to use "bombastic" to describe explosion-filled games, which is distant from its prior meaning about language and diction. To be clear, this is a joke extension, but perhaps it can bring you joy by quietly changing a word and surprising you one day.
