argh. "literally" is one of my pet peeves! good on yah!

 |
I LOVE misuse of the word literally. You get some of the greatest mental images from it. "Schumacher has them literally over a barrel!" and so on. ^_^
|

nonolarson on Nov 28 '06 Argh I hate people doing "air quotes"!!
|
 |
I misuse the word 'literally' AND i do air quotes all the time, but I still love this shirt! 5$ from me
|
|
I wish people would use air apostrophes - that might make it easier for them to remember the difference between plurals and possessives...
|
 |
oh thank you. i hate it when people say literally the wrong way. i support this shirt's cause.
|
 |
Haha, very good. Are you familiar with David Cross's comic bit about literally? Sooooo great.
|
 |
Haha. 5
I like rock star quotes. (Dane Cook) |
 |
5$. I'm a proud member of the grammar police.
|
|
I've gotta say that I'm not all that fond of the font here. The air quote hands are great, and I reinterate the joy that they are not mirror-imaged.
|
 |
DUDE! i cannot stop laughing. just put something like "Tractor Beam" in the middle and i would die of laughter.
|
 |
I am literally giving this a "five".
Does any one else do air-parentheses besides me? |
 |
love it
|
 |
hahaha...greatness $5

 |
The sad thing was, I actually had to EXPLAIN quotation fingers once. This shirt would do it for me. $5
|
 |
I'M HAVING A HEART ATTACK. PLEASE print PLEASE print PLEASE print. My dad has made fun of me for doing the quotey fingers for SO long. I must buy and wear this shirt immediately.
|
 |

You must be cool or something. I give this a $5 literally.

I'm one of "those" people. And I like it.

Great design, RepetitiveStress The white on brown works very well. Here's a dictionary's note for all of us on the abuse of the word literally : USAGE NOTE -- For more than a hundred years, critics have remarked on the incoherency of using literally in a way that suggests the exact opposite of its primary sense of “in a manner that accords with the literal sense of the words.” In 1926, for example, H.W. Fowler cited the example “The 300,000 Unionists … will be literally thrown to the wolves.” The practice does not stem from a change in the meaning of literally itself—if it did, the word would long since have come to mean “virtually” or “figuratively”—but from a natural tendency to use the word as a general intensive, as in They had literally no help from the government on the project, where no contrast with the figurative sense of the words is intended.
|
 |
maybe a different font?
i like though. |
 |
Ha! I "literally" laughed out loud.
No really, I did. I'd prefer a slightly different font too, like Futura, perhaps. |
|
I like the meaning but agree that there's something off about the font.
|
|
i love it. i want this!!
|
 |
I like the design, but more color options would be great.
|
 |
It reminds me of the Mad TV skit. I like it! More colors would be nice, though, yes.
|
 |
British folk say "litrally" instead
Makes me want to destroy something. |
|
I literally laughed out loud when I saw this submission. My brother-in-law prefaces almost every sentence he utters with "literally". I literally want to smack him for it. Nice job!
|
|
love the shirt! great, simple design
|
 |
HAHHAHAHAH I LOVE ITTTTTTTT!!! MUST PRINT MUST PRINT!!!
|
 |
FRICKINAWESOME on Nov 30 '06 it's all about the david cross bit about people mis-using this word. "I literally shit my pants because jake was so funny with his viking hat on dancing around!" "Oh wow....what did you do with them?" "Do with what?" "Your shitty pants, you didnt leave them on after that did you?" "No man, I "literally" shit my pants, you're not understanding what im saying..."
|
 |
print this or i will literally cry myself to sleep. no quotes needed. $5 and buy.
|
|
Tyler- Genius! Love it!! I think some people still don't get... Have you read some of their comments???
|
|
Awwww yeah. That is what I'm talking about, Literally.
|
 |
This shirt is "literally" good. =)
|
 |
funknee!
|
 |
ahahah i am a sad victim of literally. $5!
|
 |

|
|
Ahh, that's awesome! I'd buy it.
|
 |
So damn funny! $5
|
 |

|
|
HEY! I literally love doing air quotes.
|
 |
Tonteau on Dec 01 '06 Quite funny and quite true.
|
 |
sonmi on Dec 01 '06 haha! clever
|
 |
I would definatly buy this.
|
|
I love this. It IS very simplistic - but for once, that is perfectly OK. We all hate air quotes - and we all do them ;) A T to laught at yourself. Feels good sometimes! Same thing in white over a red T would also be nice. $5
|
 |
woa, I love this, I do these air quotes all the time xD
|
 |
I love it! This literally rocks my socks.
|
 |
i need this shirt.
|
|
Today I "air quoted" twice ! Either I'm finally noticing that I do it more than I thought or this design has me fixated on it like when people tell you not to think of pink elephants. Yaaaarg !
|
|
Oh please!
|
 |
HAHAHA PURE GENIUS!!
|
|
it reminds me of dr. evil in austin powers.. he uses them all the time :)
|
 |
My favourite usage is when a sports commentator said a poorly performing sportsman was "literally dying on the field".

 |
is it strange that I've never heard someone misuse the word
"literally"? I still like this shirt, though. The whole idea intrigues me. |
 |
THIS BETTER BE PRINTED...I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!
|

About my design
How do you say what you know? I mean, how do you "literally" say it?
