Word "Literally" Used Figuratively

DENVER -- Colorado-based NuImage inc, makers of Klip Art Kollection: more images than you can shake a stick at metaphorically called a non-metaphor metaphorical in the ad copy for that product on Tuesday.
    Yale Ethics Professor Roberta Halskin wrote in a study, "Hear me now and believe me later, not only is this a contradiction, it's also clich�." A swelling coalition of research ethicists, language experts and Congressional legislators are calling for an all-out ban of the product. "I hate to be a wet blanket about it but it just sends shivers down my spine," She continued.
    The now infamous manual of the "kollection's" inside cover reads: "We've literally gone to the ends of the Earth to find you the best clip art- it's not only the best quantity buy also the finest quality available today."
    MIT Physicists today confirmed the Earth does not have an end, much less multiple ends to which a man could travel but if there were it would be somewhere around Passaic, New Jersey.
