Supermoon on the 9th (Destiny)

"The stars are aligned for this game. Literally."

[puts on pedantic nazi hat]
The use of "literally" as a worded exclamation mark is bad enough, but if you're going to make it its own sentence it had better be accurate. The only possible way that is accurate is if it's a non sequitur. Or, you think the moon is a star, and even then a supermoon has nothing to do with alignment, only proximity.

Have a nice day :)

The phrase "the stars are aligned" never referred to actual stars actually being aligned in the first place, it means the astrological conditions are (perceived to be) good.
