Rigging

It can be used in different ways.

It is difficult to give a specific definition, however the examples will illustrate the words ‘definition’.

The word is meant to be taken lightheartedly (context depending).
For example if I had just smoked a joint and walk into a room full of people and I feel like everyone is looking at me, I would say ‘I’m rigging out’

Or a similar example would be if there a member of the public on the bus eating beans out of a can with their hands, I would think to myself ‘that is a rig fest (festival) over there’ , or ‘that is a riggy thing to see’.

The gentleman I just had a passive conversation with (who spoke about deeply personal things without the conversation being led there) was, ‘a rig man’.
