Have you seen an American TV in the past 20 years?
Josiah Jenkins
Exactly this, and not just TV.

Carson Perez
But that's literally the correct usage.
Benjamin Nelson
no it literally isn't
The Japanese didn't drop bombs on American TV manufacturing plants
Isaiah Moore
you can destroy something without dropping bombs on it, you dullard
Kayden Stewart
"Destroyed" doesn't mean that they had to use military force to crush competition. Anyhow, this is just semantics. Japan did BTFO the American car and consumer electronics industries.
Camden Carter
Ah, ok. Did the Japs march into the plant with cricket bats then?
They didn't ''literally'' destroy the TV manufacturer. They figuratively did. That's it. There are still TVs being made in America.
Kayden Stewart
You are literally a pedantic shitposter derailing a thread that can turn out to be good because you're an attention starved redditor. Literally.
Brandon Robinson
Literally can also means figuratively, you literal cuck.

Also, it's 'cuckold' not 'cuckhold' (unless of course you are implying that I am putting a cuck (you) in a chokehold)

Why are redditors so obsessed with cuckoldry that they know the correct spelling and correct other people about it?
Really makes you think. Being a cuck permeates every fibre of their being. Literally.

>used in a figurative way as an exaggeration
Kind of feels like a cause-effect problem. "Literally" was initially only able to be used LITERALLY.
Samuel Jackson
Report this faggots posts god damnit. OP should remake the thread, its been perma-derailed
