I use it often enough and feel like it's a not all that uncommon of a word. It's the context this buffoon is using it in that is weird and out of place. No one uses it like that. It's just uncommon enough that it makes his poorly placed use of it here reek of "teen with a thesaurus trying to sound smart" energy.
I remember it being used like that by WASPy boomers clutching pearls. Like it's the way some HOA-type ghoul or evangelical lich would use it while sputtering indignantly about the kids these days.
