Pro Tip: "literally" does not mean "i really really mean it, like seriously"

I actually looked it up at m-w.com and discovered, to my horror, that one of the accepted meanings of "literally" is now "not literally"

Welcome to the idiocracy...
I think I'm going to go ahead and claim that I am forking my reality from everyone else's. In my reality,  to ease communication (which coincidentally is the purpose of words), "literally" and "virtually" will keep its proper definition and not mean "one thing plus its opposite."

Don't forget decimate. No one means 10% when they use it.
