'Plusgood' covers the meaning, or 'doubleplusgood' if you want something stronger still.... In the end the whole notion of goodness and badness will be covered by only six words; in reality, only one word."
Um, seriously, I love you.

I'm not sure why people are so concerned about other people's children. If they turn out to be hellions from wearing "hip-hop" clothes, then that's their parents' fault and has nothing to do with you.
