My friend’s 8 year old and his friends use “brexit” as a verb in English meaning “to fuck up” - eg in playground football “he really brexited that shot”. I’m using it to mean something similar but better aligned to its roots - trying to do something you think will be good and specifically fucking it up for yourself.
Interesting that even 8 year olds use it. My 18 year old semi-pro footballer nephew uses it a bit differently - a 'Brexit tackle' takes out the player, possibly for the match or the rest of the season, I think.
Enjoyed that whole exchange.

Alison Rose really brexited that interview.
