It’s an older expression I’ve never really understood or liked, but here you go (help from gemini)
“” The expression “It’s a gas” likely originated from Irish slang, where “gas” meant “a joke” or “something frivolous”. This usage gained traction in the 1920s and 1930s within the African American community during the Jazz Age, and James Baldwin used it in print in 1957. It was further popularized by the hippie movement in the 1960s.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown:
Irish Slang: The earliest documented use of “gas” to mean “joke” or “frivolity” is in Irish slang, appearing in print by James Joyce in 1914.
Jazz Age: This usage of “gas” spread within the African American community during the Jazz Age of the 1920s and 1930s.
James Baldwin: The phrase “It’s a gas” appeared in print for the first time in 1957 in a short story by James Baldwin.
Hippie Movement: The expression was further popularized by the hippie movement of the 1960s.

You only talk like that when you know you’re being overheard (and maybe plan to leak it too)
I hope it popularizes the idea of algorithmic control.

I’m still glad they wrote the piece.
Yeah I have a friend from the UK who voted for Brexit. He regrets it now and I’m like: “WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS GOING TO HAPPEN?!”
Avoiding alcohol, sleeping on your side, and losing weight (if overweight)… can all make a big difference and none require spending money. (Source: my snoring used to bother my wife).
