I pointed out again that they weren't actually, physically, with their actual hands, tearing their hair out" and she said, "No, they were literally tearing their hair out". Now everytime I talk to her I amuse myself by saying "I'm literally standing here" and she looks confused. The irony being that, although I'm using the literally entirely superfluously, I am using it more correctly than she does. What a cunt [I am] eh?

Atari 2600 said sarramkrop was "literally" a cocksucker and that I was a figurative one.
I've been called worse.
