| Nov 2, 2010 at 14:39 | comment | added | Jon Purdy | Related colloquialisms: "to be big into", as in "Kevin is big into baseball cards", means that it's among one's principal interests or involvements. "To be into" also denotes "to like romantically/sexually", referring to a person, an action, or a philosophy or subculture. In the negative, it implies that you are not a fan of something that is popular among certain people: "I'm not into rollercoasters". Quite versatile, that phrasal. | |
