When I came to California from Australia, they used it with me... and I didn't understand what they meant. I literally told them I didn't know whether they were insulting me or complimenting me.

Tight
adj. Having the quality of being awesome; provoking positive interest.
synonyms: cool, awesome, grand, spectacular, amazing, incredible, yabai, etc.
As in... "Oh, that's tight, cuz!" [Golly, that is quite incredible, my fair man!]
Guys use that word a lot more than girls. It's kind of crass for a girl to use it, in my experience.
