ppl use it randomly, so dont try to decipher it online, but as for using it correctly, highkey means obvious, lowkey means subtle. so, “im highkey starving” means either “im obv hungry” or “im trying to make it obv that im hungry” and, “im lowkey annoyed” means either “im annoyed but im trying to be subtle” or “you might not have known this but im annoyed” but also im autistic so my interp could be dead wrong😭 i js look at urban dictionary and hope!

lowkey is like you don’t want to admit something. like an unpopular opinion. you’re being lowkey about saying it. highkey is like unashamed to be saying it
