Am I the only one that thinks "Literally, no one" every time I see the title?

Other than everyone wearing a red hat or most politicians with an R after their name?

I didn't think we had any of those on the forum. At least not vocal ones. Though... there are probably a couple of people on the forum that are "with" him. So I guess I'll have to start thinking "Almost no one" every time I see it.coopasonic wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 3:59 pmOther than everyone wearing a red hat or most politicians with an R after their name?

As I tell my teenaged kids: ‘literally’ should be used far less than you think it should. I feel like their generation has weaponized the term (but not literally weaponized).TheMix wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 5:31 pmI didn't think we had any of those on the forum. At least not vocal ones.

I am well aware of that. When I use it, it's almost always a conscious decision. In this case, I'd actually forgotten about the couple of forum members that are likely to be in agreement with the subject statement.

Their generation's use of the term has become an official definition.Carpet_pissr wrote: ↑Sat Jul 23, 2022 9:53 amAs I tell my teenaged kids: ‘literally’ should be used far less than you think it should.

Literally now literally means virtually.
Literally = not literally.2. : in effect : VIRTUALLY used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible
