I was wondering how long it would take you to use me as a definition.
I wasn't taking the words seriously; I just enjoy messing with people.
If anything, this conversation was a fun one.

Have a thumb on me.

Not that i agree with his words, but nigga, are you really using microsoft's dictionary as a definitive source of whether something is or is not a word...

It would be most annoying, wouldn't it?

don't killme , my first language is not English

I figuratively just faced this problem today.

THANKS OBAMA

Is that literally a fucking doorstop...?

I thought it was a literal wedge of cheese.

I literally think you're literally right!

Why are some names blue, while some are white?

If you have had your account for over two years (I think) you get a blue named account.

I literally don't know

I think that it might have to do with the duration of the account or something like that.

dat liz gillies.....ugh

Then they should use "really" or "seriously", rather than a word that is incorrect.

They know it's incorrect, it add mores emphasis to what they mean than using "Really"

>Implying they know it's incorrect, when too many do not
>Implying using a word that is incorrect will add more emphasis than a word that is correct

Look up the definition of literally, and then say that using that wouldn't add more emphasis.

Adverb

In a literal manner or sense; exactly: "the driver took it literally when asked to go straight over the traffic circle".
-------> Used to acknowledge that something is not literally true but is used for emphasis or to express strong feeling. <----

lit·er·al·ly
[lit-er-uh-lee] Show IPA
adverb
1.
in the literal or strict sense: What does the word mean literally?
2.
in a literal manner; word for word: to translate literally.

lit·er·al·ly (ltr--l)
adv.
1. In a literal manner; word for word: translated the Greek passage literally.
2. In a literal or strict sense: Don't take my remarks literally.
3. Usage Problem
a. Really; actually: "There are people in the world who literally do not know how to boil water" (Craig Claiborne).
b. Used as an intensive before a figurative expression.
Usage Note: For more than a hundred years, critics have remarked on the incoherency of using literally in a way that suggests the exact opposite of its primary sense of "in a manner that accords with the literal sense of the words." In 1926, for example, H.W. Fowler cited the example "The 300,000 Unionists ... will be literally thrown to the wolves." The practice does not stem from a change in the meaning of literally itselfif it did, the word would long since have come to mean "virtually" or "figuratively"but from a natural tendency to use the word as a general intensive, as in They had literally no help from the government on the project, where no contrast with the figurative sense of the words is intended.


Try again.

And you never have

You made a comment, so you could clearly care less.

A Maury reference.
Fuck yes.

ooooohhhh my God this shit is everywhere!
Stop it was funny the first few time!

I want to overkill this thing until it becomes whatever the opposite of funny is.

fine

Ironic, isn't it?

Since I am not a rabbit, no I do not want salad

I think that's where "That's my name. Don't wear it out." comes from. If you repeat anything enough times it loses its' meaning.

I never thought about it like that before, thanks for the insight!

Knowing is half the battle. The other half are highcalibre assault rifles.

And legit.
"This pizza is legit so good"
What, you usually lie about the quality of pizza?

this post didn't say it was grammatically incorrect, just that it is annoying as fuck, and i must say i agree

yes it did.



"Annoying:
people who use "Literally" incorrectly"

"incorrectly"

I literally just thought of this too

But literally is used to mean that what you're saying is EXACTLY what happened.

"I have butterflies in my stomach" means that somebody is anxious, where "I literally have butterflies in my stomach" means that he has fucking butterflies flying around in his stomach and needs to see a doctor.

WWell, they used to be caterpillars...

I know what it means, just look at the other comment I wrote, too lazy to type it again

No. No it's not. Not even a little bit. Putting the word "literally" in makes it the *opposite* of a figure of speech. That's why we have the word literally, so that you know the person is not exaggerating.

Guy says he had butterflies in stomach: figure of speech; he's nervous.
Guy says he LITERALLY had butterflies in stomach: dude ate some bugs.


That's just how the English language works, friend.

I understand what you're saying, but I still disagree, I think it has become part of the figure of speach rather than the explanation of it's legitimacy.

It being the butterflies or w/e
