Locked On

‎'Locked On' - adjective: slang pod term used to describe moments when a person gets completely obsessed with an idea and keeps running with it until they realise that they're acting like a freak. Often includes rambling and random tangents. Generally 'locked on' period lasts no more than 5-10 minutes, but has been known to extend to the wee hours of the morning and result in some really stupid decisions (commonly combined with alcohol/alternate means of intoxication in these extremes).

stay locked on

imperative form of the verb 'to be locked on'.
origin: More Fire Crew, who describe themselves as 'one of the UK's leading garage music crews'. I must add here that 'leading', and garage being defined as 'music', are two points of personal contention.
At present MFC are engaged in a fierce and occasionally violent rivalry with fellow garage 'musicians' the 'So Solid Crew'. This leads on to the question often asked on the 'street', or in the 'hood', 'Are you More Fire or So Solid?'. The respondent's answer to said question can result in either:

a) a sound thrashing (if they nominate the rival crew)
b) cries of 'respect' or 'safe', if the interrogators share the same view

Thus to be 'locked on' is to be in touch with a situation, to understand and appreciate its significance. To 'stay locked on', is to remain up to date.
It is often used as a replacement for 'see you later' or 'goodbye'at the end of a conversation.
