I admit this strip was inspired by a reader e-mail after the previous strip in this theme, which basically asked Ishmael's opening questions.
Ishmael here is using "literally" literally, rather than figuratively, when it means "figuratively".
This figurative use of the word "literally" has become so common in the modern age that my friends and I have taken to using the term "literally literally" in conversation when we mean "literally" literally.
