i had a woman training me on computer a while back who used 'literally' as punctuation
at various points she 'literally died laughing'
was 'literally foaming at the mouth'
and also 'literally fell to pieces'

the stupid cunt

Literally a stupid cunt?
I couldn't agree with you more. I hate it when people say literally when they mean something entirely different like virtually or figuratively or something.

i kept a tally sheet after the first day
she would say it more than 20 times per morning

ran·dom
–adjective
1. proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers.

I'd argue that follows no definite aim, reason or pattern. Not that I disagree on the whole; my Cambridge dictionary has no such loophole.

tom hanks (or forrest gump) is there for the purposes of rhyming slang
it was done deliberately with a definite aim, reason, or pattern
( mictoboy, Wed 9 May 2007, 13:32, archived)

Point taken. Sorry, I just woke up with a headache the size of the Taj Mahal and didn't realise that was a compo.

humans are incapable of doing anything completely random

Not even the Dice Man?

( Afinkawan, Wed 9 May 2007, 13:37, archived)

Then ultimately you'll have to accept the use of the word as a synonym for "unexpected" or argue that nothing is ever actually random, as I'm sure you could use the same logic to argue that not even atoms decaying are random (just not yet fully understood)?

Actually, to be honest, I don't care, I've just got a rotten headache and thought I saw some inaccurate pedantry. *refluffs and relurks*
*ninja'd*

There's a club in Shoreditch in an Underground Toilet...
It is very Thin and thinks it is trendy..
It also lies frequently about who is playing there...
