i had a woman training me on computer a while back who used 'literally' as punctuation
at various points she 'literally died laughing'

Literally a stupid cunt?
I couldn't agree with you more. I hate it when people say literally when they mean something entirely different like virtually or figuratively or something.

ran·dom
–adjective
1. proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers.

Then ultimately you'll have to accept the use of the word as a synonym for "unexpected" or argue that nothing is ever actually random, as I'm sure you could use the same logic to argue that not even atoms decaying are random (just not yet fully understood)?
Actually, to be honest, I don't care, I've just got a rotten headache and thought I saw some inaccurate pedantry. *refluffs and relurks*
