Re: Literally.
I really haven't heard literally being mis-used, though I hear "the best thing in the world" being mis-used all the time.
"OMG that Peanut Butter sandwich was like the best thing in the world! Really? The best thing in the world? |

Re: Literally.
Lot of talk about things being amazing as well.. Areas of outstanding natural beauty are amazing, the alps are amazing, the act of human flight is amazing, the internet can be pretty amazing at times..
Starbucks frapuccino's are just good. Not amazing.

Re: Literally.
'Get' and 'Have' in places like sandwich shops and bars.
I am going to get some milk - I will be walking to the milk section, selecting it and taking it to a cashier. I am therefore getting it. If the person behind the counter is getting it for you, then you should say 'Please may I have a pint/ham sandwich/half a pound of peardrops' not 'Can I get...' Overheard this monring at the Royal Academy, a student who experienced the trauma of a London pigeon very briefly brushing against her leg - Squeals to friends "OH. MY. GOD! That like pigeon like literally like touched my leg!!!" If she overreacts like that to a pigeon imagine what would happen if a rabid dog chased her? I can only wish for such things to happen.

Re: Literally.
I am not great at spelling or grammar but i think speaking correctly isn't too difficult.
Something I noticed from young lads in the army was saying " I swear down " when their story seemed unlikely. Think it might be a Northern thing???
