A thought...
Monday. 2.12.07 12:59 am
I just saw a little clip of "Stargate: Atlantis" before I turned off the T.V.

"Why don't you like her?"
"She just has a way of getting under my skin." A glance to his left, then shoots a look at his commander. "Literally."

Doesn't literally have the definition of in the literal or strict sense/actually; without exaggeration or inaccuracy? What happened to using words the way they were meant to be? When did we start throwing words around without any respect to the people who made them up and stuck them in early dictionaries? And you know "literally" isn't the only word being misused nowadays. I can't think of any other ones at the moment, but I know there are trunkloads of 'em.

Just a thought.
the Dot

p.s. @Dilated-dear: No, no, I can't do that. It's hard to see and not everyone would get it. Besides the dot itself it waay too small. My significance in The Circle of Life is much too big to be summarized in a ".".

I don't like when people use the word 'irregardless' considering its not an actual word. its just something that annoys me. I agree with you tho, on people abusing the misuse of certain words.

Considering it's Stargate and what can happen the commander could "literally" get under his skin. :)
