Other expressions include "lit af" (cool as f*ck), "not somber" (drunk and crazy), "OMG" (Oh my God, an exclamation), "police" (either someone called the police, and the party's over, or just police), "Woo-hoo" (an exclamation of excitement), and "YEET" (an exclamation of excitement or a sound used when throwing something across the room). 🎉😄
