Frankly in a sentence as an adverb

So frankly, good bye and good riddance to Starz. Go climb this hill and die upon it.

But frankly I expected better. I guess I sort of expected that even if AirBnb was being dumb, that when the first article hit news.

I frankly don't see the connection. I do see how some puritanical folks could be upset, because you know, sex is terrible.

Sure, but frankly, we don't feel we have to. I think there is a strong sense in our design team that we shouldn't change things simply for the sake of being "different" -- we should change things to actually improve them.

Yes, the naming is unfortunate, though frankly I don't feel sorry for Gruber given that Atwood posted a public letter calling for change two years ago. Yes, these are all issues.

I find myself struggling to suppress my subconscious mind in this regard, and frankly, I don't know how I can help it. Edit for clarity: I don't have problem with such posts being written and upvoted, quite opposite actually, I'm glad they are written and read.

Furthermore, I'm not really sure why this belongs on HN, because it's not very technical, and frankly, not very intellectually stimulating. People on here don't appreciate humor, so those who upvoted this should have known better.

Names are not intended to be unique or, frankly, immutable. A nickname, full name, shortened name, set of initials, or even a creative symbol can all stand for the same person and it's nobody's business, especially for a free "social" site, what relationship that string of letters has to that person.

Quite frankly, if you couldn't afford the loan, chances were that you wouldn't be able to get it at BofA. Risk management slowly started relenting when they started seeing the profits of its major competitors--and they toyed with the idea of providing subprime loans--but it never really got off the ground before the Financial Crisis. Countrywide, on the other hand...

The whole debate is frankly embarrassing for both sides... Of course, admittedly more so for Curebit - but I can't be the only one who thinks that DHH's cocky attitude, publicly tweeting things like "******* scumbags", is just embarrassing when he is the main face of a friendly and professional company like 37Signals...
