What is the meaning of phrase "Working Blue"?
Good day , in school meeting, I overheard another parent mentioning how their child's comedy routine in class was described as "working blue". I am approaching you to ask about the meaning of the phrase.

Hello, Liyana!
When someone is said to be "working blue," it means they are using vulgar, explicit, or crude language, especially in their speech or performance.
This phrase is often used in the context of entertainment, such as comedy or stand-up routines, to describe content that contains profanity, so I’m a bit puzzled why a child’s performance may be described as such.
"Working blue" can also refer to using risqué or edgy humor that pushes the boundaries of social norms or decency.
I hope this helps!
