He uses the word, "literally" incorrectly:

"I read a bizarre article by the WaPo last week, and it LITERALLY blew my brains out..!!!"

Eh...no it didn't. Cuz you'd be dead, or at least unable to say anything about it.

Fussy, huh..? Rush has cut back a lot on it lately, but he used to be a really, really hard-core addict on that one.

He would often misuse that word 15 or 20 times per show, but now he might do it just 3 times, sometimes even less.

I feel silly for talking about it here, though, cuz I think nearly EVERYONE has at least one teeny, tiny complaint, and when they get trundled out it just sounds like whining.

Yeah, everyone has their peave about Rush. But that is OK, glad he is there, living rent free in every liberal’s brain, and “literally” giving them fits.

Thats just one of his things how he pokes fun at liberals because they, like, literally, cant talk right.

I love the nuance and depth of his sarcastic wit.

Um.... you don't get it. It is meant to be an exaggeration.

“I literally died from embarrassment!”
“I literally fell overboard when I heard the news about Aunt Martha!”
“I literally thought I went to heaven when I tasted that blueberry pie!”
