If someone actually In Real Life...

[Barry Egan]

...used the phrase "that's streets ahead!", how would you react? 

[Diunx]

Whats wrong with that phrase?

[Barry Egan]

yeah I probably wouldn't say anything either.

[Cormacaroni]

this isn't a very good thread now, is it. What on earth were you thinking

[Barry Egan]

I know it's the worst  :'(

[Barry Egan]

streets behind

[Cormacaroni]

...struggling to reply in some sort of way that will make you feel better

[Phoenix Dark]

Use it in a sentence plz. I have no idea what you're talking about

[Cormacaroni]

'All of EvilBore is streets ahead of My F**king Grandpa'

[Barry Egan]

When somethings trendy or hip you go "wow man, that's really streets ahead"

on the other hand when something is out of date you say "ew. Streets behind"

or see above example.

I'm so glad I never talk to people irl.

If they said that, I guess i'd react rather poorly, since it is both poor grammar and a bastardization of the original idiomatic phrase.

Ahh I see. A bit too clunky for my tastes

[Fresh Prince]

streets or streaks?

[chronovore]

I'd say the phrase itself is at a crossroads.

"What do you mean streets ahead?"

*stare*

"Moving on."

Basically.
