Lightfoot

The word Lightfoot probably originated in the Midwest where it was popular with people during the Great Depression and Dust Bowl era. It’s now making a comeback and refers to people who will lie to you and steal you blind after you have helped them.

Lightfoots move around a lot—go on down the road—mostly because people and the law are after them, earning their moniker ”Lightfoot”.

Nowadays, Lightfoots are often hooked on drugs or are sociopaths. Having no regard or empathy for other people, they rarely have real friends. They will jump from job to job but would rather earn their money the easy way—illegally!

They tend to be self-destructive and are often in and out of jail. A Lightfoot will take advantage of family and strangers alike, often hurting those who love them most.

A Lightfoot stole my purse after I gave her a ride in my car.

Lightfoot

When presented with a long list of complicated tasks and one takes the easiest possible route, doing things incorrectly and cutting corners to the extreme.

Jim: Our sales reps have gotten really lazy lately. I've gotten 30 invoices in the past five days for the same account. They're just fudging their numbers as they go along with no recourse for the past.
Sue: I know. I used to try to keep up with it correctly, but now I'm just lightfooting it.

Damn, the dude behind me has a serious case of Lightfoot and is creeping up my bumper as if it's going to get him to work earlier.

The Gordon Lightfoot

Noun. The act of tapping someone lightly on the nuts with your foot in an attempt to either piss them off, or let them know you mean business.

Lowry was getting ticked that Hank kept peeing on his house so he went out to yell at him one day to find that Hank would not listen so readily. Lowry then proceeded to give Hank "The Gordon Lightfoot", which knocked Hank out of his alcoholic trance. Then Hank having been "Gordon Lightfooted" decided to turn his life around and become a porn star.

Lori Lightfooted

1: The inability to partake in social events or outings in response to Lori Lightfoot's extensive safety countermeasures enacted, aimed towards "flattening the covid curve". This is a term most applicable to those closer to downtown Chicago, but also to those who live within nearby areas.

Can also be shortened to just "Lightfooted", however this is an actual word with a totally different meaning. In this case, "Lightfooted" must be used in a bummed tone.

We would've gone to the club for my birthday, but we were Lori Lightfooted
