A state of maximum hype—when the energy is so high even introverts start acting suspiciously social. Lit events are unforgettable, sometimes regrettably.

“Last night’s party was lit, no lie.”

When something is actually good and not just TikTok-hyped nonsense. Calling it legit means it passed your personal vibe verification.

A quick way to say yes, confirm plans, and pretend you’re spontaneous. Works even when you have no idea what the plan actually is.
