What's the difference between "literally falling apart" and just "falling
apart"? That word "literally" seems to be used a lot these days when it
adds absolutely no additional clarification or meaning to what is being
said. Sincerely,

Literally, as in for that band "the writing was on the wall". :-)

Dammit, if i started a list of all the misused words in our currently
spoken language(some say losely based on English) i'd need an hour
just to type it out. Or would i be typing it in ?
Hm, stupid language, let's all switch to Esperanto. ;-p
