The 17 Best Reactions to Being Asked to "Netflix and Chill" in Case You Need One ...

By Lyndsie

It has recently come to the attention of the internet at large that “Netflix and chill” does not actually mean “let us hang out together as we watch this documentary on Bronies.” The assumption is that you will actually bang while Netflix plays in the background. Upon hearing this, many people reminisce about the days when coming over to watch a movie meant just that. I understand. I used to think so, too. Most girls do and many guys do, as well. Still, think about it. Did you ever hang out with someone, pop a movie in the VCR or DVD player, and suddenly it's like porn music starts playing in the background? It's always been this way. Sometimes you're into it, sometimes you're not, and sometimes you just want to finish binge-watching “American Horror Story.” Now that you're aware of both the euphemism and the idea, here are a few possible reactions for various Netflix and chill situations.
