    I do believe if someone told me to “lock in” while I was on a video game I would fall over laughing.

      I mean that’s the point kind of haha. I know some people use the lingo unironically, but if I tell my homies I’m bout to lock in, clutch up, and secure the dub, I don’t want them to take me seriously, lmao.

      When my buddies are playing, and we’re being loud, telling jokes, and generally goofing around instead of paying attention, one of the common things we’ll jokingly say when the laughter dies down is “alright alright alright, focus up guys, let’s focus up”.
