The bottom picture is of Faith, the “second Slayer” in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, who was chosen as the new Slayer following Buffy’s first death. She used this phrase a lot. It was the style of the time.
I’m not enjoying hearing one of my preferred pop culture references being explained like you’re a fucking museum tour guide lol
Fwiw, I watched the show and needed it explained anyway
I skipped Buffy back in the day. Still cannot get into it.
I’ve got a coworker that used to say this all the time, until I started singing ‘bye bye bye’ every time he said it

Buffy is such a good series, one of my all-time favorites.
What does any of this mean?
It’s signal strength and signal clarity, both on a scale of 1 to 5.

Edit: There is also a famous line in Aliens where a pilot says “we’re in the pipe, five-by-five”. I think it’s also said in buffy.
What I’m thinking
Did I fall asleep?
