An abbreviation for the phrase, โskip to relevance,โ used in conversation as a blunt request for one to get to their point. A method of asking someone to โwrap it up,โ without making it obvious you donโt care.
STR originated from various internet based forums, chats, and online games where the predominant method of communication between players/participants is text, arising as a result of many self-important and drama obsessed peopleโs habit with almost fanatically explaining even the most mundane detail of a mundane experience to make it seem extraordinary.
STR is also used verbally, pronounced โSTiRโ with a softer enunciation of the transitory โIโ sound. The phrase has been commonly adopted by retail workers dealing with technical, electronic, or entertainment media, and often used in customer support situations. It is typically employed when a customer begins detailing their life-story up until the particular issue, including when they bought it, why they bought it, their opinion of it, thoughts on the โjust out of the packageโ smell, as well their commentary as to their current emotional state, and โhow their day is goingโ before ever explaining what exactly went wrong with a product, or why/how they managed to loose/throw out a receipt given to them mere hours earlier. STR is often used as a verb in situations such as this.
โโฆ and I bought this for my son, though I donโt understand why he wants it, but I figuredโฆโ
โCan you STR, maโam?โ
โAnd so yeah, so we were getting all hot and heavy in the back seat, so we decided to go back to her place, but on the way we stopped off at mall to buy some.โ
