A word with very limited application in the English language that is nonetheless used extensively by millennials, and also by middle-aged hipster liberals, in attempts to sound smart and well-informed. The word is needlessly inserted into may statements, and is used gratuitously and/or incorrectly.
Chick I met at an anti-Trump rally: "I am literally so angry about the government shut down."
Me: "Literally? You were literally mad? You were afraid I would think you meant you were 'angry' figuratively?"
Same chick:"Oh my god, that was so funny I literally pissed myself!"
Me: "Um...are you sure?"

A word that dipshit millenials (99% of the time a female) use to show emphasis. Almost always used incorrectly instead of the word figuratively. A dead giveaway that the person who uses the word is a mouth breathing degenerate who got a C in English class. These people often do not know the difference between "they're", "their", and "there".
Literally actually means exactly what is said.

Dumb millenial chick: omg last time we were their I literally died laughing
Smart dude: you mean figuratively, not literally. And it's "there", not "their"
Dumb millenial chick: ugh whatever

A rare breed of person who types correctly, using corrent grammer & punctuation where necessary. They are often for elitists because of their desire to mingle with other literates.
They detest things such as chatspeak, which is often called "shorthand" by illiterates. Some literates can deal with said chatspeak, while others cannot.
