I have noticed that as well. I have also noticed people using the word “literally” incorrectly/and commonly. “I was literally sick to my stomach” or “I literally had to sit down” (both cases NOT involving throwing up or having to sit down). A pet peeve of mine...
My kids say literally, literally all the time! ;) It drives me nuts. A few of them don’t even know what the word means yet.
Sean Hannity is literally over the top with his incessant use of “literally”!
