    Do you also get annoyed when something not actually cold is called cool? Or if someone doesn’t actually get to a task “in a minute”?

    If literally everyone in CA was actually sick, that would have a bigger impact than late-2020 COVID. I’d prefer if language wasn’t catered to the type of person who doesn’t recognize the post title is an exaggeration to convey seriousness.

      When it is a news headline, yes, using “cool” wrong is unacceptable. Its a thing called “journalistis standards”.
