This came up just as I had written the sentence, "I personally kill
several myself." Speaking of potted plants, horticide.

I tried the sentence without "personally" and it wasn't the same. So I
had to think about why I used it, trying several different words. What it
meant it that usage was "alone, all by myself, just me without any help."
