the shirt has no bearing on the comic - it's just an internal ad for the shop (it just looks a bit weird below the gayroller because the artwork is similar)
There's a current car commercial for Dodge that uses the slogan "the car that literally gave birth to the sports car." As soon as I saw that commercial I started envisioning little baby Dodge Chargers covered in amniotic goo, their proud red Dodge Viper and red Dodge Durango parents looking on. But wait, why is the baby car black? (cut to a black Corvette nailing the Viper in the tailpipe.)
In the UK its in extremely common (an irritating) usage amongst football/soccer commentators. Actual examples:
"He is quite literally on fire"
“He literally turns into a greyhound.”
“This new ball is going quicker than ever; it literally explodes off the player’s foot.”
“He had to cut back inside onto his left, because he literally hasn’t got a right foot”
"He's literally run himself into the ground"

Anyone know any other good examples of the mis-use of literally? If someone provides one that's super mega rad I'll happily illustrate it.

No, no that's not acceptable. I would literally hunt you down and force feed you macadamia nuts if you used that and meant it. Literally.

I'd call David Cross first. He has this whole "literally" thing racked up and ready for break... literally.
