When someone uses the term “acid-washed,” normally the first thing that comes to mind is denim jackets from the 1980s. But Donald Trump found a new use for the term during his second presidential debate against Hillary Clinton.
Trump claimed Clinton deleted all of her emails and then “acid-washed” them, though he didn’t explain exactly what that he meant. So to help illuminate the situation, here’s some of the best quips from Twitter.

Advice: Don’t try to acid-wash your e-mails yourself. Buy the ones at Miller’s Outpost. It will ruin your next three loads of laundry.
