Blame Judas Priest, I guess.

I think the more popular, modern understanding is "thing."

Just sounds like you could save yourself a lot of grinding to just accept it. This type of change has happened and will continue happen.

But I do understand you, too. You do you.

Right? Thing makes no sense in that context. All of the sudden just sounds awkward. Guess I had way too many picky English teachers. Another one is I seen it instead of I saw it

Or how about me and you instead of myself and yourself? People use possessive pronouns incorrectly.
