machineelf Posted May 20, 2014 Stop using the word 'honestly' unless you like to imply you are a liar. Post edited due to paranoia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paradox Posted May 20, 2014 i guess in trashy modern culture the word 'honestly' has come to be more of a figure of speech rather than actually having anything much to do with being honest. i think in that kind of usage it is very much one of those rather unsophisticated Americanisms.. i kind of understand what you're getting at & i honestly don't blame you for being paranoid but it's also true that if you focus on anything for long enough you will start to notice it everywhere, am thinking something along the lines of 'the 23 enigma' or 'the rule of fives' or some such memes which point to a pretty interesting & mysterious aspects of human psychology. can lead you down all kinds of spirals if you aren't careful.. Though i don't feel i have the right to discourage anyone from their favorite paranoia's, i have my own too so can't really judge : ) totally agree with bill hicks.

Francois le Danque Posted May 21, 2014 To clarify: I actually do always strive to be frank. That's why i chose it as my name a long time ago. Though i do love a good bout of Truthbending, especially in the interests of humour amongst friends. And yes i completely agree: behead mainstream media . Viva la revolucion.

Fenris Posted August 9, 2014 Try replacing honestly with actually, I hear it all the time, it is really just sentence padding as neither word adds anything useful to the sentence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
