Touch Grass
Stable🌍UniversalDefinition
A suggestion (usually mocking) that someone should go outside and reconnect with reality. Used when someone is being too online, too obsessed, or arguing too intensely about something that doesn't matter.
Translation for Parents
It means 'go outside.' When your kid tells someone to 'touch grass,' they're saying 'you spend too much time on the internet.' The irony that they're saying this ON the internet is lost on them. (It's not lost on you. It's never lost on parents.)
Examples
“Bro wrote a 2000 word essay about a cartoon. Touch grass.”
“He wrote a very long, obsessive post about something trivial. He needs to go outside.”
“I need to touch grass fr I've been doomscrolling for 4 hours”
“I really need to go outside. I've been mindlessly scrolling for too long.”

Safe to use
Parents have been saying 'go play outside' since the dawn of time. This is just the meme version. You invented this concept. Claim it.
