Things the elitist superstructure finds distasteful (42)

Filthy public transportation.

2 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4936 17:23

Public transportation is insufficiently elitist.

3 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4936 18:08

And has too many malodorous creeps and weirdos talking animatedly to themselves.

4 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾,..,＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4936 20:32

people that describe my city's public transportation system

I find the surprisingly common event of seeing a single, lonely, unpaired mitten at the side of a road, or on a subway track, dirty, trodden into the filth, uncared for, and unloved, distasteful. I believe the Elitist Superstructure will agree with me on this.

Nay, I find it to be a poignant reminder of the inequities inherent in our pitiless society. The same inequities which, deliciously ironically, enable our elitism.

7 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4948 01:04

Things that say they're "new and improved". How can something be new and improved at the same time?

8 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4948 23:27

Bush is definately distasteful.

9 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4948 23:46

Misspellings are possessed of a distasteful nature.

10 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4949 20:19

Also playground politics. Politicians are all merely our puppets, so arguing about them is merely a distraction for the benighted masses. A true elitist wouldn't waste time on such pointlessness.

11 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4949 20:56

SUVs are distasteful, a proper elitist rides a bicycle, or rides the Takebashi line.

VIPPERS all drive classic Japanese sports cars such as the Nissan Fairlady Z (S30) or brand new Japanese sports cars such as the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII, both of which are rather distasteful.

13 Name: ⊂二二二（ ＾ω＾）二二二⊃ : 1993-09-4950 02:15

GAY MAGIC is distasteful.

What happens if you drive a car between those ages, such as a 2nd gen or early 3rd gen Mazda RX-7?

Distastefulness.

So! Look.
Today I went to the mall and after I bought what I liked I went back to home. But after wandering for some time at the mall I got hungry and went to the shop to buy some stuff. It was filthy shop, totally unclassy. And there I saw IT. and IT saw me. IT was a well... person... with short hair. Our eyes met and IT looked at me... well I don't know how to describe that feeling... I still got chills run down my spine when I remember IT glance. It was like IT knew everything about me.. IT glance was not icy.. not strict... I don't know how to describe... Maybe IT's glance was glance of Andrei Chikatilo before he is going to kill the victim he tortured for hours!!!! Absolutely no blinking glance. Glance of Black Hole... I even dropped my bag... IT looked at me, IT glance was neverending... I am shit scared and I am totally never ever will go to that place again. Because IT can do anything... Like stab you with knife... Well... Now I do understand why beautiful girls do not commit crimes... because if they do... they will be sent to jail... and in jail.... there are a lot of IT. after meeting with IT girl will never be free of her.... don't know how to say.
IT will be chasing her till the end of times... FUCK
Now do you realize what it's like to be beautiful???

People who use the word "exponentially" to compare two numbers.

37 Name: (*ﾟーﾟ) : 1993-09-8330 18:16

People who use "literally" figuratively, and also people who complain about the figurative use of "literally" as if such use hasn't gone back as far as Dickens.

It's always true but just as often it is distasteful.

39 Name: (*ﾟーﾟ) : 1993-09-8331 18:50

>>37
People that can't (like you) can't tell the difference between a word being used figuratively, or hyperbolicly.

40 Name: (*ﾟーﾟ) : 1993-09-8331 19:01

>>39
People who can't spell "hyperbolically" and/or are so far up their own assholes that they kid themselves that they're invoking hyperbole when telling a workmate about the time they literally died from laughter or literally shat their own brains out and/or don't understand the irony in failing to sage politely when trying to make a jibe in a thread named "Things the elitist superstructure finds distasteful".

Touche on the spelling. Incorrect spelling on a textboard, as we all know, is a vary grave error, so please forgive my carelessness. (but seriously, I very much should have politely saged to make a snide remark, and for that I do apologize)

However, I still most insist that I am correct. If literally has come to mean figuratively, then why are there situations where literally doesn't replace figurative in common language? Take the following exaple.

"When I told him the news, he exploded."
"He actually exploded?!"
"No, of course not. I was speaking literally."

Could you ever imagine someone saying that?

If someone said "He literally exploded", literally is not being used in place of figuratively. Rather, literally is being used as an intensifier for the figurative used of "exploded".

I was being a bit unnecessarily pedantic on the spelling, but I was sorely hurt and this has turned into a linguistics argument.

Anyway. I didn't say "literally" can also mean "figuratively"; of course it never has and has always literally meant "as written". I was writing about the figurative use of the word. Thus there is little point in my dissecting the rest of your post, as it is merely based on a misunderstanding.

However, the example dialog does acknowledge that "actually" is the complete and unambiguous way to differentiate between a literal and figurative phrase.
Compare "he was literally 8 feet tall" with "he was actually 8 feet tall".

"Literally" is, indeed, popularly used as an intensifier, but overwhelmingly for figures of speech (i.e. figuratively).
