5. Bye Felicia: In the Urban Dictionary, it states: “When someone says that they’re leaving and you could really give two shits less that they are. Their name then becomes “felicia”, a random bitch that nobody is sad to see go. [Their] real name becomes irrelevant because nobody cares what it really is. Instead, they now are “felicia”. “hey guys i’m gonna go” “bye felicia” “who is felicia?” “exactly bitch. buh bye.” This about covers it.
