This Is So Lit

I have a special gift.  I know exactly how to take totally cool, or . . . "lit" things and make them totally annoying.  Hahaha  I love doing this.

Say, for example, your child comes home with a totally awesome new phrase and they're practicing with how to interject it into normal conversation, and you hear that phrase, and ruin it, like a boss.

In case you're not in on what the cool kids are saying, it's"lit."  Like: "This new song is so lit! I could listen to it all day."  "Check out this YouTube video- it's lit!"  "Did you see what he did?!  It was lit!!"

I DESPISE this phrase.  Either- it's because I am turning into an old fuddy duddy.  In which case, thank goodness I am blogging about this- so I'll know the exact moment it happened to me.  Or it's just an intensely stupid phrase that is as annoying as small children with an electronic keyboard.

Andrew began sampling with this term today, as we were traveling home.  I used my special gift, to remove that ridiculous word from his vocabulary.  As I changed lanes, I was "lit" about it- because I used my turn signal.  I was so "lit" when I passed that car without swerving into them.  I was "lit" when I exited.  The way I sang along to that Christmas song was "lit."  I was "lit" when I unloaded the car.  It was "lit" when I got Alexa's bedroom clean. (okay- that actually is pretty freaking lit- because her room was bad.)  I'm also thinking, the fact that not only did I get the laundry done, but folded, and put away, is pretty doggone lit.  The way I can write this blog, and watch the Cowboys is lit.

Okay- I think you get the point . . . and so did Andrew and that is really all that matters.

  1. Oh my, lol! Reminds me of when Steve killed ratchet. As in that's so ratchet (awful). He brought it up for years after and interjected other tools in its plate because that was, well, lit!
