Follow Up to “Are You “Literally” an Idiot?”

A few weeks back I blogged about people who use the word “literally” incorrectly, and how stupid that is.
I recently came across another blogger posting on the same thing, and I have to say, his examples are very funny.
Here’s a sample [I added the censoring]:
Kristen Stewart from the movie Twilight recently reported: “I get to do something that literally if I didn’t get to do, I would implode.”Oh, s***. Well, thank God she was able to get into acting, because can you imagine if she imploded? She’d be all tiny and dense and s***. And if she got fat first, she might have had enough mass that her implosion would cause a black hole. Whew, crisis averted.
Very funny stuff. Go read the rest. I literally died laughing…

You know, I sometimes tell people that profanity makes everything funnier. And it’s totally true. I mean, it’s just not as hilarious with the asterisks. I should write about asterisks some time. I’ll bet I could really defame them hard-core.
Fair enough. Probably not as hilarious with the asterisks…of course, the asterisks do allow the reader the artistic freedom to insert their own profanity of choice…
