This is really cool, but my brain keeps getting stuck on the word choice. Every time I see the `literally` keyword, I hear a teenage, valley girl accent in my head.

"Literally, at sign."

"Like, literally, hashtag, guys."

I can't even.




And now that "literally" has been coopted to also mean "figuratively", I don't even know what that clause means. I also got mentally stuck on that phrase, and my eyes literally popped out of my skull.


Yeah, we've got VALGOL for that:
