“literally.” The way people misuse this is startling.

The one that makes me cringe is "So". Almost every young person on television, spokesman, announcer, pundit, or whatever begins their sentences with SO. Is is some trend now? It just goes through me.

Have you come across "Yeah, no"? I asked someone earlier this week which she meant as that was her response to me. I suggested she had an option "Yes" or "No" but not both. I have heard "Yeah, no" frequently in recent months but this was a rare time in which I had the opportunity to directly reply. And for the record, I am still perplexed by "And I was like omigod" as a singular response to situations and that phrase is old.
