I work with a bunch of Gen Z, most of whom use this phrase all the time.

It's stupid. Like they are some arbitrier of what is fair or not.

I’m beginning to interpret this phrase as the person not knowing how to hold a conversation so they fall back on a good neutral response that can be used in almost any context…


I use it frequently when someone is forcing their controversial opinion at me, and I really don’t want to engage.

See also: “I hear ya, buddy.” or “I hearrrrd that.”

May as well thrown in OK and I agree and sounds good and works for me and I like it etc etc

Get over yourself bud. Let’s just eliminate every phrase in the English language

What are you talking about. This means the person you are talking to you is conceding your point and agreeing that you make sense. This is in no way someone not being able to hold a conversation. What a dumb arse post lol

I will say, “that’s fair” when I’m trying to not talk to someone anymore.

That’s fair. Leave me alone. Stop fricking talking.
