    I would say, the “real” “actually” is more of that.

    The “ackshually” is more knowning that people can be like that and being a bit sarcastic about it.

    As in “actually, X, but only someone really sweaty and pedantic would make that point earnestly, which I’m not”.

      I actually love when I get the chance to use it, sometimes I get a little too cheeky with it but I try tp really save it for the extraordinarily deserving counterpoint haha
