Completely meaningless phrase which has gained mysterious global popularity. It means "Once, I..." or "I used to..." but is uglier and lazier. Similar to the equally meaningless "at the end of the day..." popularised by English soccer stars.

Get the back in the daymug. Completely meaningless phrase which has gained inexplicable global popularity. It's an incomplete thought: Back in what day? It's a redundant way of saying "Once, I..." or "I used to..." and adds words without adding any extra meaning. Similar to the equally pointless "at the end of the day..." popularised by English soccer stars.

Get the Back in the daymug. Person A: I found some old records in an antique store the other day; made from vinyl and everything.
Person B: What are records?
Person A: They're how people listened to music back in the day before CDs and radios.

Get the Back in the Daymug. Regarding a time before you mattered. A time that you were not a part of. You must have at least 5 plus years on to even say this phrase.
Back in the day I didn't even work here because I don't matter and should never say back in the day.
