A link on Drudge this morning to Adele's mishap at the Grammys. Here is quote which might be British slang. Maybe it's the common yank phase indicating a job quickly done. I don't know. Here is her Twitter quote:

"Because of it though... I'm treating myself to an in n out. So maybe it was worth it."

What is she saying, "in n out".

IN N OUT is a hamburger restaurant chain in the western United States. Perhaps she avoids unhealthy hamburgers as a rule to keep up her appearance, but has decided to indulge to cheer herself up or celebrate?

An ABC news article states:

Despite her on-stage troubles, the singer, 27, still had a pretty great night. Because of the snafu, she wrote, she treated herself to a late-night snack at an L.A. standby: In-N-Out Burger

That makes it very clear.

  • Her decision to indulge was definitely an attempt to cheer herself up. She was quite pitchy last night, which was very much extraordinary for her.

In this sentence, I don't think 'in n out' phrase means the work that is done quickly. More likely the intensity of the work that has to be done quickly. You can buy Adele tickets to see Adele and ask her yourself) That would be a question she would never expect a fan to ask!
