Then you just say he made the guy jump out of his shoes, omitting the "literally." And the defenders didn't even jump. Wtf was the hyperbole for?

The word "literally" is off limits when youre being sarcastic or exaggerating :no:
The word is a compass in a sea of confusion. Using it in the manner that you did is like driving solo in the car pool lane; sure it's easy to do but it destroys the very fabric that holds society together.

In other words, literally literally means literally.

All jokes aside, I seriously actually thought you meant literally and was expecting to see a guy jump out his shoes. Come to find out there wasn't even so much as a hop.

Literally means both literally and figuratively now. No, seriously, it does. Look up the damn definition. People who cry over the use of "literally" have no idea what they're talking about.

A lot of people use it like that, but it doesn't make it correct

It flat out says you can use it unless you're in the most formal of situations. I think internet message boards don't fit such criteria.

I don't think he has any chances at all but it would be great to see him assist the best of the best with those sick passes

Classic Pistol.
Rubio often reminds me of Pete Maravich (tho so far, without the scoring prowess).

LOL at grammar police on ISH, of all places.

I could have said he "figuratively" jumped out of his shoes, but it just didn't have the same ring to it. It literally didn't.

Why don't you just not say it at all?

This. The definition has changed over the years because too many retards were using it the wrong way.
