the literal hen
Penalty for incorrect use of the word ‘literal’.
Hmm. In my head I wanted “literal” to modify “golden” but not “hen” or “eggs.” I guess that didn’t work out so well on paper.
Try ‘You don’t need to sell the hen that lays the literally golden eggs’.
I thought it was a goose.
So it was!
