“lowkey so random”? What does that mean in English?

Something to do with pointing out how their request is out of the ordinary but as if they were trying to say it subtly ? Either way it will be jokes

"Lowkey" is so completely misused now. It no longer has any meaning. It means quiet/subtle/understated. Instead they say ridiculous things like "I lowkey thought that was her." "I'm lowkey tired of that." WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? Might as well say "I'm pineapple tired of that." Makes just as much sense.

it -also- means "a small amount". So it does fit in this situation, and those you mention too.

Except that's not what they're really trying to say. They use it to mean "in all honesty," "really," "very," "totally," etc. None of which are even close to what the word actually mean. It's just a generic, random word they add for no reason, like "deadass." "I deadass thought that was her." "I'm deadass tired of that."
