Are we fastidious yet?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Anyone who works with social media is familiar with spam posts. I get lots and lots of them here on the blog, and for some reason the most frequent adjective I see is “fastidious.”

As any native speaker of English knows, fastidious has a fairly precise meaning. The dictionary defines it as “excessively particular, critical or demanding; hard to please” (as in a fastidious eater), or something requiring excessive or painstaking care or delicacy.

And that, apparently, describes my blog. Some typical comments:

  • Asking questions are actually fastidious thing if you are not understanding something totally, however this post offers nice understanding yet.
  • Hi to every , since I am in fact keen of reading this blog’s post to bbe updated on a rrgular basis. It contyains fastidious data.
  • Ahaa, its fastidious dialogue concerning this paragraph ere at this website, I have read aall that, so at this time me also commenting here.
  • Hi, yeah this paragraph is genuinely fastidious and I have learned lot of things from it concerning blogging. thanks.
  • Hi colleagues, fastidious paragraph and good arguments commented here, I am genuinely enjoying by these.
  • This piece of writing is actually a fastidious one it helps new net people, who are wishing in favor of blogging.
  • Hello Dear, are you genuinely visiting this web page daily, if so after that you will absolutely take fastidious knowledge.
  • What’s up all, here every one is sharing such knowledge, therefore it’s fastidious to read this website, and I used to visit this weblog all the time.
  • Thanks in favor of sharing such a fastidious idea, article is fastidious, thats why i have read it entirely.
  • Hello every one, here every one is sharing such experience, thus it’s fastidious to read this weblog, and I used to pay a visit this website everyday.

All these comments makes me wonder: In teaching English out there to the wider world, who decided “fastidious” was such a useful word?
