It's morning and I'm hurting bad
Last night was totally rad?

Would it not have been faster to google the following?
rad means

Well actually Mr Homer, I clicked on the word “rad” and used “look up” and it came back with a blank, so I thought you might have spelt it wrong meaning to use either bad or sad or whatever - it’s definitely not a word that I am familiar with (from the UK not the US).

It's a shortening of the word radical. It's commonly used by the kids to describe an amazing thing (overstating as kids are bound to do). Like a rad concert, a rad party, etc. One of those words I believe MDMK said she doesn't like!!

When I right click on a word, one of the menu selections is 'Search google for ' then the word. Perhaps your "look up" is a dictionary.

C'mon guys, this thread is a lot fun, and many of you are enjoying it. Its a form of poetry, grant the guy a bit of poetic licence. At the end of the day, its a word I've never heard of, but when I took Homer's advice and looked it up, I thought it was an excellent fit. How many of us have felt like sh*t the morning after a really good night out.

Please don't let this 'fun thread' degenerate into a slanging match.

I’m with you all the way BB, but like you I had never heard of the word rad being used in this context hence my query as to wether it was perhaps a spelling mistake as the quick dictionary check drew a blank. I’m sure you’ll have noticed that I am a regular contributor to this thread and equally enjoy all of the contributions

It's morning and I'm hurting bad
Last night was totally rad
That will teach me to get drunk

It's morning and I'm hurting bad
Last night was totally rad
That will teach me to get drunk
I've now woke up in bed with a skunk

[Homer]

It's morning and I'm hurting bad
Last night was totally rad
That will teach me to get drunk
I've now woke up in bed with a skunk
Don't remember if it's a lass or a lad

There was a young lady from Rome

There was a young lady from Rome
Whose head was bald as a dome

There was a young lady from Rome
Whose head was bald as a dome
She polished her head each day with a duster

There was a young lady from Rome
Whose head was bald as a dome
She polished her head each day with a duster
Such was the chore, it was all she could muster

There was a young lady from Rome
Whose head was bald as a dome
She polished her head each day with a duster
Such was the chore, it was all she could muster
But on Sundays she buffed it up with shine-foam

He sat in the sun all red faced and sweaty
