An unclearly defined expression with at least two opposed meanings:
1. cool, rad, bonkers, often used in context with shenanigans
2. lame, stupid, occasionally also referring to douchebaggery
The extreme ambivalence of the term is an uncommon and problematic linguistic feature. To avoid misunderstandings, the term should be used in an overly frequent way, thereby making its meaning as unclear as possible.
Mainly used as a single-word comment in conversations.
Derived from the German word "läppisch", meaning easy/small.
