Lowe it, or Lowe-it, man
Originated from London (
yes the one in
England/UK) and is a shortened variant of "Allow it" or "Allow-it, man".
The term is similar to the saying "
Water off a ducks back" and is employed when one wants to let a slight or insult go, and not indulge or get involved in an argument with some inbred arse monkey that is:-
1) Too
stupid to come up with an insult that might actually get a rise from you.
2) Or a total fucking hypocrite anyway, that no one takes seriously, ergo, you let their insult go, as it's meaningless from such a fuck
tard anyway.
The "Lowe" rather than "Allow" is due to the London accent that contains a glottal stop.
It should be noted that the term really comes from UK, London
based, inner-city black culture, and NOT from rich middle class boys who think they can cut it as a black youth in the UK.
So here is a crap of how "Lowe it" or "Lowe-it man" should be used.
example:-
Slag-Hoe -
"Oi, man, your trainers are well out of date, init, man"
You:-
"Y-e-e-a-a-a-h, Lowe it, man."
(As the
Slag-Hoe is a jobless single
mother on benefits with more kids than a football team and a is probably carrying a few SDIs for good measure.)
