where did the phrase netflix and chill come from
Netflix and chill Since its first recorded, nonsexual use in a tweet posted in 2009,[1][2] the phrase has gained popularity within the Twitter community and other social media sites like Facebook and Vine. By 2015, Netflix and chill had become an internet meme and its use on teenage social media was commonly described as "sexual" by Fusion.[1] Much like selfie, the use of the term has spread beyond the internet and into general use.
Cold feet The origin of the term itself has been largely attributed to American author Stephen Crane, who added the phrase, in 1896, to the second edition of his short novel, Maggie: A Girl of the Streets.[7][8] Crane writes, "I knew this was the way it would be. They got cold feet." The term is present in "Seed Time and Harvest" by Fritz Reuter published in 1862.[8][9][10] Kenneth McKenzie, a former professor of Italian at Princeton University attributed the first use of the phrase to the play Volpone produced by Ben Jonson in 1605.[8][9] The true origin and first usage of the phrase remains debated and unconfirmed as exemplified above.
