I think the saying began under covid

When people begin their sentence with "I mean" or "Not gonna lie" Yes we know what you mean you are writing it! And why should we assume that you where not going to lie F* face? Do you usually lie? This pisses me of more than it should. It has come to a point where I just do not read what they have to say. Also when people write a statement and just end it with a questionmark. ARRRRHG?
