Wait. Wait wait wait
wait. “Netflix and chill” doesn’t mean
binge watch Netflix and chill?
What?! How is this possible? HOW IS THIS BRAND NEW INFORMATION?!
Here I was…. Casually going about my evening, watching UVA
try to put out the dumpster fire that was their last two basketball games, and
I got a facebook group message from some baseball friends with this article and a twitter message from my
favorite (former L )
Nats bullpen guy Drew Storen:
Guessing we won't be able to use the in-laws Netflix password anymore.

The other ladies in the group message were laughing and
saying they thought “chill” meant… chill.
I was a late comer to this conversation, so as I was reading everyone’s
comments to catch up, I found myself confused, wondering what they were talking
about. Slowly, I began to think wait… does Netflix and chill means something
other than…. Netflix and chill?! Surely
not…. Right?
So I read the article, and found myself face to face with
the horrifying realization that Netflix and chill really doesn’t mean binge
watch tv and chill out. Omg. OMG. I
checked with two friends, who just laughed at me and my ridiculous lack of
knowledge.
I now find myself feeling both horrified (because I know
I’ve used this phrase before, but I can’t think of when or to who), and feeling
like I’m about 80 years old, and, honestly? I can’t decide which feeling is
worse.
