I hate when "literally" is used as a generic intensifier.

From my psychology textbook:

Learning about the brain can be, literally, mind blowing.

Now I am scared to continue reading.

I continued reading.

Turns out that learning about the brain can be, figuratively, mind blowing, but literally, not so much.

Most textbooks are.

Sadly, it's like a million pages long and I'm actually expected to read it. wtf.

My logic book consists of pages and pages of useless explanatory material intended to explain remarkably simple concepts. Modus tollens is two pages followed by three pages of exercises.

One would imagine a single example sufficient to explain a three line argument.
