[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MAILED WHAT IN?[/quote] Originally the term was "phoning it in." Seems like it originally was used by actors in the early the 20th century as a joke when the speaking part was so small it could be "phoned in." This evolved to meaning a lackluster stage performance. Then a catchall for any lackluster low effort performance. Someone decided "mailing it in" was the equivalent and you'll hear this phrase used to describe professional athletes who are not putting in 100% effort. With work from home taking off maybe we'll start "Zooming it in" as the next iteration of describing lackluster efforts lol! [/quote]
