behavior

autre orthographe

Used for something or someone fully off their rocker — not dangerous, just delightfully unhinged. A bonkers person is the type who tries to fix a toaster with a butter knife or unironically runs marathons ‘for fun’.

“She climbed Snowdon in flip-flops — absolutely bonkers.”

“Extra” describes a person who has taken the concept of enthusiasm, emotional expression, or theatrical flair and turned the dial well past social norms. The term gained mainstream traction through reality TV, meme culture, and social media commentary where calling someone “extra” is both critique and admiration. It acknowledges behavior that goes beyond what the moment requires—sometimes charmingly, sometimes catastrophically. The hallmark of an “extra” personality is the inability to perform mildly: every reaction is an audition, every outfit a red-carpet moment, every inconvenience a personal attack.

“She brought a confetti cannon to study group—so extra.”

autre orthographe

Describes someone doing the absolute most when the moment asked for… maybe half. It’s the vibe of a friend who turns a group text into a three-act drama, or the person who shows up to a casual hangout dressed like they’re auditioning for a music video. Being extra ain’t always bad—it just means your drama levels are permanently set to ‘season finale.’

“Why’d she bring a ring light to brunch? She’s so extra.”
