Get a little gay

Whoopi Goldberg (The View) was famous for coining the phrase "Sometimes you just have to get a little gay". During the fragile formative years of 2005 - 20012, "Get a little gay" was definitely "a thing". Celebrities such as Tom Cruise and Katy Perry talked quite openly on this subject, citing benefits for health, weight loss, and increases and personal well being.

Since the legalization of gay marriage, the "getting gay" movement has since faded into obscurity. The phrase "Get a little gay" has now etymologized into meaning anything from "lighten up!" to a cool slang way to tell someone you're crackin' open a cold one with the boys.
