Cutting On

What does cutting on mean?

Teasing

Cutting on someone is the act of making fun of them, typically in a playful or joking manner. It's a common tradition among guy friends who are comfortable with each other and can take a joke without getting offended. While teasing can get nasty, it usually involves light-hearted remarks or playful insults meant to be funny rather than hurtful (similar to roasting or dissing).

The tone and context can change the meaning of "cutting on." If it crosses the line into more mean-spirited or harsh comments, the recipient will likely not take them well, especially if the person being teased feels singled out or attacked.

Example

my buddies were cutting on me for bailing on the guys' weekend
