I literally just saw this movie for the first time last night. Long overdue. It was an excellent film!
Before anyone asks, it's from Highlander (1986)
it's not super common
I'm 40 years old. This was pretty common to hear when I was a kid. But as the younger generations grow up, the language changes, along with the public mindset. Possessive phrases like this used to be considered romantic because it meant you were desired by someone. In today's culture, it's creepy because it sounds more like someone sees you as a thing to own.
It's actually been a long time since I heard someone use this particular phrase.
I'm 41 and I still make this mistake all the time.
No matter how old and broken my body gets, I'll always be a teenager at heart.
