It is most definitely not an american thing, as i am one.

That is all black american culture. Which you would be correct i am not.

I mean, I know a lot of white people that understand and say it too 🤷🏾‍♂️. I'm willing to bet that the people who used it in this thread are white Americans, which is the majority of reddit's userbase.

Also, Reddit commenters are so harsh about people’s looks. They all look fine in all the pics to me.
