"Feeling some type of way"

[Jalapeñomel]

Have you heard this phrase from the youngins?  I wish it would die in a fire.

[Eagles]

I've heard it from youngins and from olds, I would say for the last ten years or so. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

[trafficgirl]

I think the first place I "heard" it was on here. Can't remember who though.

[speckledfrog]

It's all over CEP.

[whiskeyandwine]

No. And I work with youngish ones. What does it mean?

I've heard this phrase for many many years, mostly by older people.

Where are you from?  Maybe it's a regional thing?  I've never heard this phrase, and apparently, I'm not observant, and I've never noticed it here! 

[pooh8402]

I've only "heard" it here.

[underwaterrhymes]

It's used here a lot. I don't mind it depending on who uses it.

But I can get on board with tossing it into a fire so long as we also can include "SMH", "all the feels" and "cray."

DIAF is so much worse.

But the kids don't scream this in the hallway constantly!

I'm a military brat so I don't really have a home but I've been on the east coast for the past 15 years.

I'm on my phone so can't tag anyone but maybe call a black person meeting and ask others cause it's def a phrase that's been in my family and social circle for as long as I can remember.

[frozentoes]

I hear it all the time at work.

[melissa]

My older sister (who will be 35 this year) says it all the time. Not a fan of it myself.

Oops, I say this from time to time in real life. I tend to use it when I'm all heated but can't find the words lol

I'm going to guess this is the reason for the popularity.

[zoomzoom]

Never heard it. I work with people from age 18-76. I also don't listen to hip hop. Weird.

[itsme]

My sister and cousin both say this and they are in their 30s so not super young but not old. I hate it.

[atlas]

The only place ive ever heard it is CEP.

[Deleted]

Ya I def heard it here for the first time

This phrase needs to die, along with "feels" and "hairs."

Feels I know but how are people using "hairs"?

Same. I heard it most when I lived on the East Coast.

I was just thinking "You might not wanna look at CEP then."

[dd1204]

Totally agree, @tambcat. That used to be thrown around here quite a bit.

[Deleted]

Nope. Then again I'm not around youngins.

[brighton]

My x-bf said this a lot about 12 years ago. He's the only one I've heard say it.

[isabel]

I've only heard it on here, never in real life.
