Mid definition: what "Mid" means and examples

Mid is a particularly cutting insult because it doesn't mean something is "bad," it means it is boringly average. It is used to "take down" things that are being heavily hyped. If a new film comes out and everyone says it's amazing, a teenager might call it mid to show they are unimpressed. It suggests that the subject lacks the "wow factor" and isn't worth the attention it’s getting.

Examples:

1. "Everyone says that burger place is great, but honestly, it’s a bit mid."
2. "Her outfit was okay, I suppose, but a bit mid for a party."
3. "Stop hyping up that song, it’s completely mid."
