"Literally"

Misuse of the word 'literally' figuratively drives me insane.

OK, I'll not use the word literally, figuratively speaking that is.
 
I'd hate to see you driven insane.

Have you literally checked the dictionary about this? 

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Those don't look like knots to me, they look like a dozen ends of ties I wouldn't wear (Ok, maybe there's one or two that aren't too bad - but I still don't see any knots!).

If I wore those ties, my figurative figure would be literally littered.

Does that make it a literally or figuratively insane or sane pic?

Hi,
 
Liberally insane, and it wasn't done by Miro!
