The term "legend" can be ascribed to people like Elvis, Ghandi and Yoda.
It usually entitles the holder to speak about themselves in the third person and for their lessons to live on in the minds of those whose lives they have touched forever.
If you sink ten pints then walk home with one shoe on while singing the complete back catalogue of Spandeau Ballet you are not a "legend."
You are a twat.
Every time your friends describe your antics as "legendary" they are usually euphemistically stating that you have embarrassed yourself and everything you stand for.
Judging by my sore head this morning, I was clearly somewhat of a legend last night.

Is the adoption of the inverse meaning for the word 'legend' part of modern linguistic trends which have applied to words such as 'sick', 'bad', 'gay' etc., or is it just that a sector of society can see something genuinely legendary about being sick on their shoes?
