The constant abuse of the word "literally" pains me so. Its bad enough when used incorrectly: "I literally flew out the door!" No, you don't have wings or a jet pack. Its even worse when it's used unnecessarily: "I was literally walking out the door!" Of course that is a literal statement! Was there any possibility that I might have mistakenly thought that you were figuratively walking out the door?? No! There was not figurative alternative to the language used. I post this on Sup Forums because the degradation of the English language is a massive component in the decay of western society. Reclaim your mother tongue. Speak with perfection. Thank you for indulging a neofite faggot.
Literally fed up

Yeah, it's a great thing English has never changed and has always been the same until now since it's creation by God and Jesus when they wrote the Constitution 6,000 years ago. I hope it stays that way forever, like it always has, which is why I can read Shakespeare and Beowulf with incredible ease.
Whenever my co-workers say it i say "The word 'literally' is literally adding no context to your sentence." It takes them a minute
No one cares David's Cross. Rember you said nigger and leftists laughed?
Why do you care so much? Literally....why do you care?

This is literally the most autistic thing I have read today, and I was literally at an Autism Speaks rally.
The point of literally is just to exaggerate something. You have asperger's to be bothered by language changing. You already are using words your grandparents have never heard of. Think about how people talked 100 years ago, 200, etc

you are a bunch of gross prescriptivists
English is only as beautiful as it is for acquiring a greater vocabulary and being so diverse with so many meanings for words. People like you make immigrants more comfortable, you make me sick.
"Unironicaly" is annoying
Not entire sure why. Hurts my soul though.
