Based as in based upon, not based in. Example: "that man has a great moral base for that comment", thus that's a based comment.
Julian Hughes
Something that is based has a firm foundation. That which is based is that of which things are predicated. To be based is to be like God.
Jason Smith
Hunter Nelson
i also have wondered this. i have come to the conclusion that based is the opposite of cringe.
it's like the adjective form of chad.
Thomas Bennett
Ryder Allen
It means based in or having foundation in principles that are true and unquestionable. I.e, some dude that no one likes is talking shit and you sock the mutha fuka. No one is going to do anything about it, but they will all nod their head in respect and appreciation for doing what no one else was willing to do.

Alexander Baker
"Opposite of cringe" is a decent answer.
"Not caring what others think" is a decent answer.
But it really means grounded, which is sort of a nuanced mix of those two things and other things. A real man is grounded. Has worked on himself, thought things through, knows what he likes, knows what he hates, isn't afraid to express himself and doesn't give in to agreeability or moderate thinking. Takes initiative. Is not overly reactive.
Juan Campbell
It means you should have lurked more before asking a stupid question that a 2 minute search of urban dictionary would have answered fag. Need to know what sage means as well you doublenigger?
Logan Hughes

Colton Robinson
Unfortunately, no one can be told what BASED is. You have to see it for yourself.
Leo White

Isaiah Smith
>Based means being yourself. Not being scared of what people think about you. Not being afraid to do what you wanna do. Being positive. When I was younger, based was a negative term that meant like dopehead, or basehead. People used to make fun of me. They was like, 'You’re based.' They’d use it as a negative. And what I did was turn that negative into a positive. I started embracing it like, 'Yeah, I’m based.' I made it mine. I embedded it in my head. Based is positive.
pic related, the guy who came up with the term
Austin Diaz
To debase is to lower in quality or value, and its adjective form is debased. I always thought based was a play on this word. Removing the negative prefix 'de-' implies that one is holding firm to one's morals and principles in the face of globohomo debasement, defilement, and vulgarity.
Hudson Reed
It is from medical literature. It is short for "evidence based." Some people starting calling it " reality based" and finally just based as shorthand.
Alexander Taylor
That is what the rabbis on tv will tell you
Lincoln Gutierrez
Noah Richardson
Based on reality. Based on evidence.
David Torres
It means “from your country” like as in “where are you based?”
Carter Myers
based
Samuel White
This.
Anthony Butler
Thank you based god
Juan James
Occupation of defended compound
Asher Smith
But the slang based comes from the rapper based god, and basically it means being authentic, and doing what you want (which tends to be the correct thing)
Brandon Robinson
It's short for
"Blacks and semites eat dirt"
It's a white nationalist dog whistle and a hate symbol.
Jonathan Hernandez
>Yas Forums says they hate niggers
>they constantly mimic Lil B
Lil B is based though. As far as talentless rappers go, he at least has legitimate skillsets and a sense of humor.
Henry Jenkins
>all these newfags don't know the origins of based
and nor shall i tell you. kys
Ethan Green
this is from urban dictionary and is not correct. LMAO so many newfags wew
Isaac Phillips
Such wisdom
Nathaniel Wood
It means grounded in reality. That's why when someone says something that is grounded in reality, Yas Forums will declare it based. As in saying there are only two genders is based as fuck.
Nathaniel Perry
