    Not only is “common” unfortunately not a quantitative assertion (and I disagree), many incorrect usages are “common.”

    As earlier stated, obviously some people might use the opposite words for a particular effect.

      I mean feel free to count search results if you care to assess exactly how common it is. Regardless, writing this phrase is not “insanity”

        I’m pretty sure I only said it was wrong.
