An unlikely blending of the words gravitas and groovy. They are opposites in some ways, and thus the tension and humour. Gravitas is straight, serious, weighty and is in contemporary use, while groovy references '60's counter-culture, inspired by notions of peace and love, music and drugs. It offers props to someone or something from that generation.

Get the groovytastic mug.Adjective. A word hybrid between groovy and 'non-confrontational', usually uttered as an expression when one slightly beyond cool and slightly below 'infinitely freaking spectacular' is required.
It is worth noting that while this term is altogether suitable for colloquial and 'feigning interest' uses, it is unsuitable for sarcasm because it invariably sounds sincere. No, really.
