I hate people who use “literally” when they mean “figuratively”...Not as much as I hate people who think it’s cute to spell ‘probably’ as ‘prolly’ , or the idiots who (thanks to an imperfect spellcheck program and an inability to sound out words) actually think ‘definitely’ is spelled ‘defiantly’...but still...

the one that bugs me is “loose” for “lose” as in Obumble will “loose” the election... oh and don’t get me started on “had went”

I cringe when I hear a sports announcer say, "He literally tore his head off".

Either way....its bad.

Lol! I like the latest trend of “it could of” or “I should of been...”. See it more and more on here. (Of course ‘though, it took a Freeper to school me on the proper use of ‘who’ and ‘whom’. Ha!)

I agree with you. That’s why it’s so hard to listen to Sean Hannity. He literally misuses the word literally a billion times a day.

I hate all that too but what I really hate is people who use there, their and they’re interchangeably. Also those who use your and you’re interchangeably. I’ll stop now, the list is too long, I have to go to work at nine.
