Dibs on…

Pro Tip 1/3

Casual Context

Used among friends or informal situations; not suited for formal settings.

I've got dibs on the front seat for our road trip!

Pro Tip 2/3

First Claim

Expresses the desire to claim something first, before anyone else does.

Just to be clear, I call dibs on the best project topic.

Pro Tip 3/3

Not Legally Binding

It's a playful or informal claim, without any legal weight.

I know you called dibs on that parking spot, but there are no rules here.
