    Are you kidding? You’ve never heard anyone say, “that was the worst,” and mean that it sucked, not that it was the literal worst thing they’ve ever experienced? I can honestly say no one has ever taken that phrase that literally before, and it’s kind of fascinating to see someone who doesn’t appear to understand how human speech works, but is so confident about it anyway. I bet people in real life find that really fun.

      Of course I have. Doesn’t change the fact that it’s a dumb, very American drama, thing to say.
