Monsters are not necessarily big

Today, everything "big" is referred to as "Monster." Monster trucks, Monster sized guitar, monster cookie, monster cocks, monster sized nachos, monster mash, "that RV is a Monster", monster movies and even monster dot coms. Why does monster mean big? I guess some monsters can be big, but most are regular sized. At best, they're slightly larger than average, but not indicative of vast hugeness. Vampires, werewolfs, frankenstein-types, and even Cookie Monsters are regular sized. And wasn't Chucky the doll from Child's Play a monster? That fucker was puny. I just don't get it, what's the obsession with hugeness of monsters? It's the same with wizards. Everyone is always assuming wizards are so smart. Always, you hear about really smart people being considered "wizards." Like. "Oh, he's so good at connect four, he's the connect four Wizard." Come on, Wizards are good at magic, but not Connect Four. Unless he wins by moving your black checkers over a column or something because of some amazingly lame magic spell, he's just a smart guy, and probably good at spatial reasoning (or you are an idiot, like, you always play all your checkers on the edges or directly on top of his). But he is not a wizard. If he does move your checkers around and really is a "Connect Four Wizard" then you shouldn't play with him and I'm pretty sure that's against the rules in any event, and you can just move your checkers back to where you put them anyway using your fingers. This is all the same for monsters. Some are big, and some are small, but "monster sized" doesn't mean anything. Remember that movie Little Monsters with Fred Savage? Well it wasn't very good. But the monsters were little, yet they were still monsters. I think if you want something to describe "huge" you should say dinosaur. Those dudes were big.
