"For all intensive purposes..."


I hope you jest. o_O *winces*

I hate it when people say, "basically" to open every sentence, then elaborate until I've hit menopause. Thank you for talking away my fertility. ^_^

Basically! I have corrected every person that did that until they didn't want to talk to me anymore.

I agree on the whole deal about misuse of the word "irony/ironic."
For instance,
"You and I share the same birthdate? How ironic!"
It would be more like "What a coincidence!"

I find it horribly annoying, but funny nonetheless:

"When I found out that ____insert revelation here___, I literally shat myself."

This explains why they sell adult diapers 2 for 1 at Walmart....

"I literally shat myself"?
How many people these days actually use the word "shat"? That sentence should be rewritten as such:

Revised Version
Dawg, wh'nai came u' t'dat crib 'n , I li'erally s**t mahs'lf in mah pan's!!! Fo' shizzle!"

((Man, that took some effort. gonk ))
This revised sentence seems to be the more probable statement most people would make.
