    I realize that I've been misusing this word for awhile, and it's starting to piss me off. But in a figurative sense, only. It doesn't literally piss me off.

    Who's with me!

    Start pronouncing it the British way, "Lit-ra-lee."

    From Zoolander,

    "Can we cut it out with all the Earth tos." says Mathilde
    "We're not actually saying we're calling you from Earth, Mathilde."
    "Yeah, no...I got that...you don't literally mean ..."

    See, Mathilde used the word correctly, but us good looking people don't.

    I'm confused how you have misused the word.

    I've made it a purpose to cut down on using the word "just". I don't know why but I feel like it's used too much.

    I'm sorry, but honestly, you basically just don't get how literally awesome this thread really is, and I seriously mean that.
