    Awe as in awful.

    "Awful" literally just means "full of awe".

    And?  Languages change over time and that word has dropped the original literal meaning long time back.

    Like how incredible literally meant, not credible; though I guess unbelievable is sometimes used to express astonishment.

    That still remains one of the meanings, albeit not the primary one. In fact, the word itself hasn't changed so much as our concept of awe. Awe and dread used to mean much closer to the same thing. Just like how "god-fearing" means much more than simple fear; the notion of Godfear includes reverence, obedience, respect and awe, as well.

    I have nothing against open source. It's like Midnight Basketball; it keeps certain people busy so they don't have the energy to go out and do bad things.

    Whatever, i guessed right

    Don't cry. Besides, I gave you a laundry list of good reasons to avoid Mongo in the first place. You're the one who read the list, said "Ok", then came back and replied to your own post asking about open source. Sure, open source almost always sucks, but for example, MySQL is open source and while it sucks, it doesn't suck nearly as much as Mongo.

    A thing is awful iff it is awesome.

    Fat chance means the same thing as slim chance

    And "near miss" doesn't mean the same thing as "near hit". Oh, wait...
