DISCLAIMER: I DID NOT mean figurative language, that is FIGURATIVE language for a reason, I meant something that isn't correct in the modern world.

Such as: "It doesn't matter who started it" Of course it does, if it matters legally it should matter everywhere else,

Not really exactly what you're talking about, but the misuse of someone saying "I could care less" bothers me sometimes. It should really be, "I COULDN'T care less", but you rarely actually hear someone say that.

"When you smile the whole world smiles with you."
Besides this one being way too Pollyannish to begin with, a lot of people today seem too caught up in their own micro-universe to even notice someone giving them a friendly smile.

"You can't have your cake and eat it". Why the heck would I buy a cake if I couldn't eat it!

It's "You can't have your cake and eat it too"

It means if you eat it, it's gone.

Ok. If I buy a cake, I intend on eating it.

It’s a quote from George Orwell in 1984 that was repeated in spider man 2.

Btw i mean Far From Home.
I have no idea. It seemed like indoctrination.
The reason it makes no sense is this: If that statement is true, then that is an objective truth.

Yeah, but that's not even what makes it weird. I mean, why would they just cram a random 1984 reference into a Spiderman movie?
