I am no expert at all... but here's my 2 cents.
Maybe it's a cross-conflation from just using honestly, which I'd guess
rose in popularity with literally and actually.
So... I guess I'm saying blame SoCal? :)
tho again, I'm no expert and may be projecting my NorCal prejudices here...

You see before you *Mark Chen, PhD*.
Above his head appears a label that changes every time you look at it
between "*Hoodie-Wearing Games Scholar Thug*," "*PT Lecturer at UW
Bothell*," and
"*President of the United States, purveyor of alternative facts*."
Do you send him a tweet (*@mcdanger* <http://twitter.com/mcdanger>), check
out his website (*markdangerchen.net* <http://markdangerchen.net/>), or
respond to this email?
He looks at you expectantly with a smile.
