Pronunciation
ob-vee-yee, like obvious, but with extra syllables because the person saying it can’t stop stating the obvious anyway.
The act of publicly reacting to or documenting something that’s clearly visible to everyone around you.
Used when someone points out the obvious, narrates the moment, or comments on something already happening in plain sight.
when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.
This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"
FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
