I disagree with your comments on timing, though - in 1999/2000, when I was 16, a lot of kids in my (predominantly white and Asian) school in Berkshire already used "bare" to mean "plenty of" or "very". It had clearly migrated from black kids in London to white kids in the suburbs by 1999 or 2000. | |
