Picture yourself in this situation: You are probably trying out outfits while you spin and sway in front of the mirror– a mandatory ritual to ensure an Instagrammable you when suddenly an incoming call distracts you from doing so. It’s your friend who’s waiting for you, asking where you are. Your most probable response? “On the way!”
This time, we come to offer different reasons behind the iconic OTW–consider it a new perspective for you!
I’m OTW: The Reasons
But really, why do people keep on saying OTW when in reality, they are far from doing so? Read these 5 probable reasons below and you might find yourself smiling when either one of these accurately describes you.
1. Avoiding the “Where are you” question
Be honest, which one of t-mates here confidently says OTW where in fact, you’re far from being on the way? Yep, you probably ever find yourself in this situation at least once in your life alright. What other words could seemingly convince your friends to stop them from asking where you are other than OTW?
2. I’m on my way… from bed?
Another nerve-wracking reason why people say OTW would probably be the fact that they just woke up. A life-saving strategy, indeed. It’s like a magic word that protects you from being scolded by your friends. So, does this particular reason accurately define you, t-mates?
3. Avoiding a seriously-awkward situation
What could be more awkward than meeting an acquaintance you barely know and talk to? Yup, we feel you, t-mates! It seems that this OTW could probably save us from any awkward situation. Out of topic to talk about? None seems to work better than to simply say “Alright, catch up with you anytime later! Should’ve been OTW sooner to run some errands!”
4. Forgetting a plan
Forgetting a plan is one of the top reasons why people keep saying OTW as an excuse. Because, what reaction would follow when you say you forgot a catch-up plan? Be honest, most of you would expect a slight hint of annoyance from their tone of voice, right? Hence, OTW seems to save yourself from a disastrous day once again.
5. OTW as an attempt to invite your friends for a vacation
This is certainly the most favorite reason behind people saying OTW. Wait, what? Yes, you read that right. With OTW, you could definitely invite your friends to go for a vacation with you. This time, Gledek will strike even harder, so buckle up and brace yourself for the impact!
