Speaker: LMFAO
I'm sexy and I know it.
Context
This line is from the song "Sexy and I Know It" by LMFAO, from the album Sorry for Party Rocking (2011).
We figure you already know what LMFAO stands for, so it's not too hard to figure out that this song is kind of a joke. The LMFAO guys say this song goes out to all those dudes who walk around, thinking they're sexy when they actually aren't. Redfoo, half of LMFAO, says the central lyric is inspired by people like "hairy old men in a Speedo on the beach with huge bellies, sunglasses, and a cigar."
What? That's not sexy?
Where you've heard it
Like everybody else, you heard this line playing everywhere when it was a #1 hit. Maybe you also heard about the first grader who got suspended for sexual harassment a few years ago when he sang this lyric to a girl in his class.
These days, though, the most likely place you'll see this line is printed on a tie-dye tank top in a crappy beach shop.
Pretentious Factor
If you were to drop this quote at a dinner party, would you get an in-unison "awww" or would everyone roll their eyes and never invite you back? Here it is, on a scale of 1-10.
How pretentious this is totally depends on whether or not you're serious when you say it. If you're joking, it's not too bad. If this is a serious comment, this score shoots up to at least an 8.
