It is such a fat/lard, it is shit(ting your pants)...


Explanation:
Which does not make any sense, right? But what it really means is that (if I am correct) something is so lucky/such luck, that it is amazing...maybe something they saw on the video is pretty unbelievable... this is the best I can think of, slang like this gets invented so fast among young people...

Asker: Thank you for such a fast response. You've been extremely helpful. I didn't consider the complexity of youth slang. Much appreciated Eniko

agree  Eniko Wright: Igaz, először szóról szóra volt, de utána magyaráztam is :) Azt gondoltam ez talán a régebbi "mák" nyomán lett zsír, és így luck/lucky...de ha cool, úgy is jó. Azért ketten összehoztuk...30-on felül ez a duma már nem cool...nehéz a "fiatalokat követni

agree  Michael Golden: I always figured the evolution went something like this: "kiraly" > "siraly" > "zsiraf" > "zsir"

  -> szerintem a zsír a "zsír új"-ból jön. (ld. fémalkatrészek rozsásodás elleni lezsírozása)

agree  Hungary GMK: However the Hungarian version is less modest.
