Shine It On Edit Meaning

1.

to act like it doesn't bother you

Ricky's behavior was uncalled for, but I knew it was best that I just shine it on.

See let it slide, don't trip, play it cool, chill

2.

From back in the '70s, meaning to "forget it" or "never mind"

"You wanna go out with me?"

"Well, I'm kinda busy..."

"Okay, shine it on."

See never mind, no big deal, that's okay

3.

abandon something or someone

Dates from the early 1970's, derived from waving goodbye, a similar hand motion to polishing something.

This project is no longer relevant. Time to shine it on.

See shine, shine it, kiss off, quit
