On accident

I kind of can’t take people seriously when they say On accident, I don’t know or care if its more or less grammatical, it sounds like a child sputtering in my mind. It should be By accident or accidentally

Tummy

Any adult has zero business saying this lol

Those two things together made it seem not totally insufferable to point out that literal was actually being applied to figurative language.
