Get the all over itmug. Okay; nothing wrong; peachy keen.
It very infrequently means 'not okay' or 'I'm secretly having a bad day' or 'something is wrong, but I'm trying to hide/ignore it'.
It very infrequently means 'not okay' or 'I'm secretly having a bad day' or 'something is wrong, but I'm trying to hide/ignore it'.
Good Example:
"Hey, man, how are you doing?"
"I'm all right."
"Good."
"Hey, do you want to go get some ice cream and play some Sega Genesis games?"
"That sounds all right to me, my friend."
Bad Example:
"How's it going?"
"All right."
"Just all right?"
Here, it implies the first speaker used 'all right' in an incorrect sense, which is not likely the case.
Which may be followed by:
"Not 'great' or 'spectacular'?"
This response assumes the day has to be extraordinary or noteworthy. It implies the second speaker feels it's up to them to spice up the first speaker's life, wants to rope them into some time-wasting activity, or just has a terrible sense of humor.

Get the all the waymug. A person who thinks they know everything who really knows nothing at all. After two weeks of hanging around a dunno all, you know everything they know and that have not gathered one bit of intelligence when you catch up with them 4 years later. The stories and un-applied knowledge repeats itself.
Minion: have you seen Jo lately
Thinker: yEah, i havent seen her for years and she still has the same stories as back then. The only time she stopped talking was to listen for her echo!
Minion: Figures, I always thought she was a dunno-all!

Get the all aboutmug. pulling an all nighter is commonly believed to be when you sat up until the sun rises doing homework then sleep in the morning. it is not. pulling an all nighter is when you stay awake for any reason whatsoever all night (give or take one hour) and continue into the next day.
Once I pulled an all nighter that lasted over 48 hours. I pulled one last night because I had a friend over. She passed out at 7 am.
REASONS TO PULL AN ALL NIGHTER:
• studying
• your schedule is so busy you get home from classes at 9 (my case at age 12) and have to do hw
• you're an insomniac
• partyyyy!!
• other
IF U R PLANNING ON PULLING AN ALL NIGHTER:
♥ turn on the A\C or open a window
♥ play loudish music with a fast beat (Lady GaGa and the Ting Tings are goood options)
♥ Don't wear your pjs
♥ don't eat sugar. sugar crashes suck.
♥ drink caffiene
♥ splash face with water
♥ keep all lights on
♥ try and keep a vibe going with would you rathers, truth or dares, movies, dancing (in the case of a party or a sleepover)

In seventh grade I was trying so hard not to fail my spanish tests that I pulled a 48+ hour all nighter. I still failed.
