Use of the word "very" in nearly all cases. It is a weak word that conveys next to no meaning. Consider that replacing the word "very" with another, more descriptive word adds significant meaning to a sentence. | |

What a silly idea to get rid of a key intensifier that exists in probably every spoken language that ever existed. | |

In fact, get rid of "very" in both of my examples. The first one barely even makes sense, and the second would come across as a very blunt rebuke, no matter what kind of charming smile you put on. | |

And it's far more interesting/funny to talk about say, "a very large hammer" rather than "a humongous hammer", "a giant hammer", "a collosal hammer"... In fact those ridiculous hyperboles are far more void of meaning to me than using very. | |

I just thought about the word humongous and wondered wtf it's about, because it seems to have no clear etymological origin. Turns out it's only been around since about 1967 and the best theory is that it's a mashing together of "huge" and "monstrous". So next time you use that particular superlative, I would review it in my head as follows: would it really make any sense for me to describe this ice cream as huge and monstrous? I hope the answer is yes. | |

Just hope you never have to describe your fiance as such. That would be very depressing. For you. | |

The use of the word literally when people are describing something figurative. | |

Oh I don't really care about the semantics or to discuss them. I just wanted to use literally and illiterate in the same sentence. | |

Movie trailers tilt me shitless. They insist on giving away the entire plot in 30 seconds or less, showing exactly who will die, where it takes place, etc. I don't give a fuck, I just want to see the damn movie and not be spoiled. Everywhere there's a fast 6 trailer I have to avoid, an iron man 3 trailer i have to duck under. And then there's the movie reviewing assholes, who go like "Plot point A, I really liked. Plot point B I didn't like so much. Plot point C had to die, I mean you saw that from a mile away. And plot point D, well, that's Hitchockian and Kevorkian and Kafka-esque all its own" | |

Trailers suck. They should show one scene and that's it. But they don't because consumers don't pay attention to detail and merely see the most reactive and explosive trailers |

The funniest thing is movies still set things up like there was no trailer leading into them. | |

Writing a long quickreply at the bottom of the FTR thread, and clicking "reply to thread" because you want to reply to the thread instead of clicking "post quick reply". Then watching in horror as your 560 word strat post with deep insight into the psyche of poker players disappears in roughly 0.35 seconds. | |

So a few days ago in the car I heard a catchy song and thought I'd like to learn to play it. By the time I got home I had forgotten the artist, title, lyrics and tune. Damn. | |

Stacking off 200bb deep on river with what I thought was a straight flush vs a full house, only to discover that I only had a flush. Multitabling PLO not such a good idea. | |

I'm preeeeetty sure this happened to me once. I was like 18 and I thought I was just being a whiny little cunt (even though I never said anything about it), so I never spoke up. Then, the next time I went, I didn't feel a thing, and my cheek was all numb afterwards and all that standard stuff, and I was like, "Oh yeah, this is what it's like; I guess I wasn't just being a wimp before." | |

Did you intentionally make punctuation errors for ironic effect? | |

Usually things preceded by "for example" are examples. Although the comma action directly following "for example" was, I assume, unintentional irony | |

There was this old Asian lady at the gym this morning that kept coughing and snorting, obviously wrestling with allergies and a scratchy throat buy for 30 minutes, every minute, UGHCK, snort, UGHCK, snort... if I wasn't a repressed white male and she an elder trying to better herself, I would have started some shit! | |

We have a shih zhu that we got as a rescue and there are times I want to punt him over the fucking fence for barking at passers by. I'm really not sure how we ended up with him, some favor for a friend that turned into us keeping him, but he's a really cool little guy when he's not being a massive fucking asshole. | |
