    “There’s” is at least easier to say and is only a grammar issue, English has always been really flexible about grammar. The “literally” thing is lexical, they just straight-up turned a useful word into a decorative but meaningless one. Now I always have to ask people if they mean “literally” literally, only I can’t know if they’ll answer me correctly because if they’re misusing “literally” then they probably don’t know the literal definition of “literally”. It’s insidious!
