Heard my niece call a boring party 'mid' and had to look it up

I was visiting family in Phoenix last weekend and my 14-year-old niece said her friend's birthday was 'so mid.' I mean, I had no idea what that meant, I thought it was maybe a new game or something. Turns out it's just slang for something average or mediocre, like a C grade. It's wild how fast these terms spread now, she said all her friends use it. Anyone else hearing 'mid' pop up a lot lately?

It's like a new word pops up every week and suddenly everyone's saying it.

Just pick the ones you like and ignore the rest.

Yeah, and then you sound old trying to keep up.
