What you talkin’ ‘bout, Willis? You’ve heard it. You’ve said it. Maybe you even muttered it under your breath in a meeting last Tuesday.

You’ve heard it. You’ve said it. You’ve stared blankly while someone else said it. The Family Whatutalkingboutwillistyle is not a joke. It’s a symptom.

What does The Lifestyle Whatutalkingboutwillistyle even mean? I’ve heard it thrown around at parties, in group chats, and once yelled across a coffee

What’s the first thing people remember about your family? Not the vacations. Not the holidays. The way you show up.

You ever hear something so weird it makes you stop and say What’chu talkin’ ‘bout, Willis? I have. And not just when watching old TV reruns.

You hear the word lifestyle everywhere. And you’re probably sick of it. I am too.

You know that moment when your kid asks why the sky is blue and you answer with something about light scattering.

You know that exact second your kid says something so bizarre you freeze mid-sip of cold coffee.

You’ve heard it. You’ve said it. You’ve stared blankly while your cousin dropped it mid-sentence like it explained everything. That phrase.
