Slang

In the last few weeks I’ve over heard some slang that has seriously taken me back in time, all the way back to junior high school, high school and a blast to the 90s.

Just this morning, my Hero told the Princess that he would get a “Killer Green Tie” this week. When was the last time you heard the word “Killer” used to describe something is a positive way? It’s been a long long time for me.

One day last week I was talking to my friend in the news room about an hour before our news was to air for that day. Usually, the news room is abuzz with last minute details and late breaking news coming in…One of the reporters was running to one of the edit bays, and my friend says, “Everyone Spazzes an hour before news time”! Spaz is one of my favorite words ever! I couldn’t stop giggling over it!

Another friend of mine was talking about some really great find she had on facebook…described it as Righteous!

I guess that I’m one to talk, because I regularly use the word “totally” and I didn’t think that aged me, until I saw and heard the afore mentioned words. I’m pretty sure to my teenager I sound extremely old, but in my heart I’m still sixteen years old. Nowadays, my teenager is saying Sick, Holla and Bad… Thanks to the eighties slang, I understand the positive / negative thing.
