And I am here for it

Big Beef City: Aug 15, 2013

Would it be possible for us to stop using this phrase?

"McDonalds has a new Sloppy Seconds Burger with Triple Sauce 'and I am here for it'."
"Giannis scored a tripple double to send the Bucks to game seven 'and I am here for it.'"
"My truck nuts have lights that flash now, 'and I am here for it.'"
"I've been told eating rear end is all the rage and frankly, 'I am here for it.'"

I am here for it being you to shut the gently caress up. You're not 'here' for whatever 'it' is, and saying "I'm here for" whatever "it" is doesn't even make sense. You're standing there. You're witnessing or doing "it". You're already part of "it". This IS "it".

"My large gay friend and his fat wife's son's bris is off the chain, I'm witnessing it and I'm here for it. Look at me. Check this out. Please." Doesn't ring quite the same bells.

Look it was that or "And I'm all about it". It was a hard choice but we made the right decision.

Agreed, the vernacular should be "and here I am for it"

it's "here" in the sense of being fully emotionally and mentally present and committed, op. it means you're showing up not only in body but also mind and spirit.

like, think about that feeling of total focus and flow that you feel just before you make a really good post. actually never mind, let's try something a bit more relevant to you: think about that look people get in their eyes when you talk to them, that look like they'd rather be anywhere else. it's the opposite of that.

Originally the phase was a reference to a historical event happening and being present to witness it, but a lot of people are just monkeys who mindlessly repeat stuff without any consideration for the context and here we are.
