Bein' Cute
(1) Feeble attempt at being facetious, witty, or attractive

(2) Practices include stealing words, humor, or behavior from someone else who is basically, more geniune and original

(3) conveniently remembering something you were told in confidence, and shaping the situation into your own advantage as a means of getting attention

(4) Those who practice 'being cute' claim they're just being direct & honest, but this ploy is often detected by the audience.
Person who is being cute (after having just done one of the above): "I just brought it up because I'm concerned about you."

Other person: "No bitch, you we're actually just 'bein' cute' again."
