These words are used by amateurs of pernicious stupidity. "All the king's horses" is every horse you simpleton and these words nix the meaning of a simile or metaphor.
Use these words as you use an adverb or participles -with care- and use "of" ,"at", "with", " in", " or", "by" instead.

All is a redundant adjective. All is mistakenly thought as part of a beautiful sentence although nothing gets compared with it. The above sentences tell nothing with the exception of Robert frost and Kenobi's quote because he used the word "with". Using all is like me telling someone there is a whole tree. Whoop de fucking doo. I know that already.

—Usage note
Expressions like all the farther and all the higher occur chiefly in informal speech: This is all the farther the bus goes. That's all the higher she can jump. Elsewhere as far as and as high as are generally used: This is as far as the bus goes. That's as high as she can jump.
Although some object to the inclusion of of in such phrases as all of the students and all of the contracts and prefer to omit it, the construction is entirely standard.
See also already, alright, altogether.

You have no excuse to use any of these words.The world does not need bad writers which is an extension of stupid people.
Drop this word from your vernacular immediately; take it out of the dictionary; cease and desist.

I agree. All these silly words need to stop being utilised altogether.
