Incorrect. Literally has a legitimate colloquial use to refer to two things that are different but similar.

Obviously nothing is ever literally something else, you do not need that to be explained to you to understand the intended meaning of the hyperbole. Don't be intellectually dishonest.

A colloquial use can still be incorrect, irregardless of how common it is (and yes, I'm being ironical in my use of irregardless).
