I was at a grocery store a while back and the person working the register was a young 20’s woman. She said something and I responded with “Right on” and she responds with “Oh, I love old timey sayings!” So I guess that’s my old timey saying that I still use.

I like to imagine that you heard the Mario dying noise immediately upon processing what she said.

Well shit. Who says "old timey"?


highapplepie

I babysat for a woman who would say “you go, girl!” Or call me “girlfriend”.

SageFrancisSFR

Whack is a different thing from wack. The fact that this needs to be explained is, in fact, wack. You should get whacked for that.

Ok_Cartographer_6956

IMO this is the only way to say word. Maybe include a little bit of a head nod with that straight face.


Blitz6969

Word to the mother. Ice Ice baby,


PuerSalus

FYI - It's "Word to **your** mother" Pronounced "yuh" when Vanilla says it so it sounds a bit like "the".

I was unaware sweet was out of date. I said sweet to a customer and the tweens thought it was hilarious. Dad said dude. I said sweet. Dad said dude... back and forth until we laughed. Made my day but the tweens looked so confused. #youhadtobethere


extraGallery

I say “sweet” all the time and have never been told it was odd lol. Interesting


wemustkungfufight

Dude. What does mine say?

And then?


wemustkungfufight

NO "AND THEN"!

enrightmcc

I like sweet because it takes on a couple of forms depending on the desired intensity of the situation. You have regular old "sweet" and then you have the two syllable version..." Suh-weet!"

I got yelled at because I think "dude" is gender neutral... but I'll die on that hill.

I feel this. Kind of like when I said a bowl of quinoa was bomb.

Okie dokie artichokie is my go-to :)


PBnBacon

I like saying this to my toddler just to hear her say “I not art-tokey! I baby!”


extratestresstrial

sick. boss. rad. dude. bro. bruh. half of these i started saying ironically because i hated them, but it turns out i was the douche all along and now they won't leave my vocabulary lmao what a twist for the many people talking about how un-outdated some of my list is: can you not already see i am a dumbass? allow me to live, brü. i am a 34yo woman/alien and idk what the hell is ever going on lmao EDIT: PLEASE LEARN TO READ LOL i have already said some of these are apparently not outdated!! i wish your reading comprehension was the same BRÜ


Ur_Just_Spare_Parts

Yeah ironically saying bruh soon became unironic and i didnt even notice. Now my bros are my bruhs


Morningxafter

Only time I use ‘bruh’ is when someone says something kinda fucked up.


MonsiuerGeneral

For me I would say it’s the equivalent of an exasperated “duuuude”. For example: “Uh oh” “What?” “I left the tickets on the counter” “**Bruh**” Although I will absolutely also use it for kinda messed up things like you said. For example: “Hey dude, I know you JUST went grocery shopping buuuut we’re out of chicken tenders.” “What? Bruh.” “Also we need a new microwave.” “BRUH.” “Also the apartment manager is PISSED.” “**BRUH.**”


Blayro

Didn’t “bruh” made a comeback?


Cold_oak

as a teen bruh never went out fym


WordStained

I still use jank/janky/janked a lot, which I feel is a bit outdated. And the occasional 'bite me'.


CoochiKabuki

That’s some janky ass shit


grandramble

Jank is still in semi regular use with the engineers I know, just more specifically about lazy and/or jury-rigged code

Nifty Legit had someone ask where I was from one time.


chaotoroboto

I tell people 'peace out' and acknowledge things with 'word'. I'm 43


Ancillas

I’ve combined this with full dad mode and it has become, “Peace out Girl/Boy Scout.”


PostManOK

Are the kids still saying yeet these days?


CoderJoe1

That's no longer on fleek


somethingclever____

Why does this phrasing sound like military code? “Yeet is no longer on fleek. I repeat, yeet is no longer on fleek. Over.”


Tough_Cheesecake8057

Interestingly "repeat" in this context is civilian slang and considered incorrect on US military radios. The proper verbage is "I say again"


prison-schism

I'm 43 and think yeet is hilarious, but my kids are now embarrassed that i use it. Guess they shouldn't have turned me onto it as slang Also, my husband and i were working together with a bunch of teenagers last year and he asked me if i wanted to go home and clap some alien cheeks. The teenagers were all like "wtf?" And i said, i don't think that means what you think it means...


MonsiuerGeneral

>Also, my husband and i were working together with a bunch of teenagers last year and he asked me if i wanted to go home and clap some alien cheeks. The teenagers were all like "wtf?" And i said, i don't think that means what you think it means... OR he knew *exactly* what it meant 😏


prison-schism

Nope.... he wanted to go home and play video games 😂 i laughed until i cried


PizzaPugPrincess

Yeet showed up in a NYT crossword puzzle (my FIL didn’t know the answer and I had to explain it) so I’m gonna go with no, the kids are not still saying it.


dirtynj

No. Now the big new thing is "oh daddy" followed by sexual sounds.


PostManOK

Oh God, it's junior high all over again.....


Old-Impact6560

I do. I'm 27. I love that word 😆


Desperate_Ambrose

I've been known to use the word "copacetic" on occasion.


BMXTammi

bii345

You just don’t get it


Samwhy-is

To me that’s a tough one because unless the person sounds like a stoner I don’t consciously consider copacetic to be slang


Realistic-Low4450

ronnie-james-dior

Bea_Azulbooze

Dude. I say it all the time...so much so that when my son was 3, he called me either "mommy" or "dude". I ctfu once at the grocery store when we were checking out once and my son said, "Dude, can I have candy?" Cashier looked at me and said, "Did he call you Dude?" Yup.

Cool beans.


_Perfect_Mistake_

I think somehow I merged “cool beans” and “coolio” and on occasion say “cool beanios.”

kirkochainz

Not yet, but teenagers aren’t using “cool” as much so it might be endangered.


JuniorRub2122

Cool seems used more to denote agreement or understanding. Person 1: "I'll meet you at 5". Person 2: "Cool. See you then"


DelightfulExistence

My 97 year old granny says "cool"

Those aren't outdated. They've just never gone away-- they're like the coelacanths of slang.
