  He clearly didn’t intend it to mean anything else but the literal meaning

  No. It only has that meaning if you’re 14 and very edgy.

    Sick has had this meaning since like… The 70s or 80s. Its not just edgy teens. In fact I suspect that this has probably fallen out of favor with gen alpha.

        Oh for sure, my comment wasn’t literal. No way does Biden have the presence of mind to make a slick response like that

      It’s been around for a long time but you stop using it like that once you have a sliver of adulthood.

        I can practically feel the elitism oozing off you, through the Internet 🤣
