A very subjective term, usually describing someone who goes against someone’s way of thinking. A lame person could be someone who has poor social skills, or lacks charisma. Lame could also imply someone who is rude to other people to be controlling, or someone who follows the crowd without having their own style or unique, paridoxically, lame could also mean someone who is TOO unique and therefore removed from basic normal interactions, ie: this person may still like to play with stuffed animals at age 15 whereas everyone else his age has moved on to Xbox or Twitter. It could further be a word lame people use to take the heat off of being called lame also.

Person A: He writes so small, that’s lame.

Unoriginal, boring, cliché, not funny, un-entertaining, shitty, annoying, over done, and over used.

Things such as tramp stamps, chinese symbol tattoos, barbed wire tattoos, tribal tattoos, dog tags, upside down visor caps, white wife-beaters, plaid cargo shorts, ford mustangs, crappy tasting energy drinks (such as monster, nos, or red bull), use of E-cigs and vapes, binge drinking crappy light beer, saying «YOLO», and tricking out your 94 honda civic after seeing «fast and the furious» are among things associated with lame people who don’t have minds of their own.

Examples of lame people are:

people who are pretentious and superficial, people who take selfies (especially ones who use the duck face), people who use hashtags, people who do whatever it takes to impress people they don’t even like, people who play video games all day, people who are drunk/high all the time, people who are always on facebook or other equally lame social media shitsites, people who try to race everyone at the stoplight with their honda civics and newer model ford mustangs with no engine modifications, people who put subwoofers in their car and blast shitty overrated entertainment rap such as lil’ wayne or drake, people who wear fedoras and skinny pants with nerd glasses, people who put hoops in their stretched out earlobes, and people who say YOLO!

Places like night clubs, sushi restaurants, coffee shops, whole foods, Los Angeles, and on instagram or facebook is where you would most likely find these kinds of people.
