"Totally Legit", when used with
air-quotes or equivalent, means "Not at all legitimate". For something to be "Totally Legit" it must be an exact copy or accurate
facsimile of the original thing, however it is of irreputable origin. Also applies to stolen items and
shady business transactions.
The literal meaning is obscured with subtle sarcasm. This is often used to convince friends to try something really stupid or get people to buy things.

Fool: "Wha??? FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU..."
You: "Hey, there's that van that says "

You: "Oh don't worry, it's "Totally Legit"!"
Fool: "Oh, well OK, I'll try it then..."
You: HA LOL
