There are a whole bunch of phrases we use without consideration.• "You know what I think?" An abbreviation of "Do you want to know what I think?" In its form as used, I feel an urge to say "Have you told me before?" • "I've always..." Well, unless this is something you have been doing since the day you were born, you really haven't "always" done it. • "I hate..." Do you? Really? Lot of energy in hating. • "I can't wait..." Sure you can. • "Literally..." Only. apparently "literally" and "figuatively" have recently become acceptably interchangeable. Yuck. So many more!!
