I always have and that throws people off in conversations but I don't really care. If someone is using the colloquial meaning then they've already wasted my time so I get to waste theirs.

Not sure it's fair to assume everyone has the same definition of the word just because it's the one you prefer

Language evolves over time and meanings change
