the slang “reaching” can be used in a couple of ways. you’
re able to use it when someone’s over exaggerating
something to make it seem worse than what it actually was, or taking
something too far.
-example
1, over exaggerating-
person 1: *accidentally bumps into somebody*
person
2: hey !
person 1: oh, i’m
sorry !
person 3: what happened?
person
2: they hit me on purpose, and they also insulted me for no reason ! *cries*
person 1: you reaching, fool...
-example
2, taking it too far-
*two students roasting each other for fun*
person 1: and that’s why you balding at the age of 16.
person
2: oh yeah? well that’s why your
parents left you, and told you straight up, that you’re a waste of oxygen and space. it all makes sense why you’re so disrespectful towards everybody knowing that you got family issues, i
mean... it’s not like you have a family.
everybody: *silence*
person 3: yo, you reaching...
person 1: *cries in orphan*
