How people talk in United Kingdom.

long

If something's long, it's a pain, boring or just way too much effort. People use it for anything that feels like a drag.
Getting two buses to college every morning is so long, man.

gassed

When you're gassed, you're really excited or hyped up about something. It can also mean someone's buzzing a bit too much, like they've got carried away.
I'm so gassed for the festival this weekend, I've had my ticket for months.
