4 months agoI don’t care what Big Dictionary has to say about it, “literally” does NOT mean “figuratively.”
If “literally” means “figuratively,” then we literally have no word for “literally.”
The people who loudly proclaim that they “don’t care what anybody else thinks!” almost always care a great deal what other people think. The ones who truly don’t seldom announce it.
