4. Ignorance.

You're either in grave condition, or you're dead.

'Grave' is one of those words which can't be qualified...

Like 'unique,' which means 'one of a kind.'

People say things are 'very unique' and ''extremely unique.'

Something is either one of a kind, or it's not. There's no such thing as 'very one of a kind' or 'extremely one of a kind.'

7. may be dying and almost certainly dying.

8. It's like Algebra.

If "grave" is x and "very grave" is 2x, then "very very grave" is 3x. Altogether, that means that "very grave" is twice as bad off as "grave". Right? :eyes:
