Tell me some old school words you don't use anymore?

Question

Mine is max out or vexed

WhiteSteve · Accepted Answer

Haha, I used to say that a lot, “I’m mad vexed.” This question also made me think of an old JR Writer bar, “I push old school words: ill, butter, and dope”

Definitely some stuff from way back I was thinking of. I remember when I was a kid playing ball we’d yell at people for being a “hun”, or “hunning”, like being a ball-hog. “Quit hunnin’ it, kid!” Also tongue kissing in middle school we called “scooping”, lmao, I had completely forgotten about that. Was also thinking that I want to bring back “pisser”, that’s an older Boston slang word (you’ll see it on tourist t-shirts, “Wicked Pissah☘️“), just means “very good”, really. “How was your trip to the Caribbean?” “Aww, it was PISSAH, dude”

Trying to think of other stuff…. I feel like “in effect” or “in the house” are kind of dated and lame now, I don’t think I’d say that this century, haha. I think we beat “swag” to a bloody pulp too. They used to call me Sergeant Swag at a job I had like 10-15 years ago, and it was actually cool, now I’d be embarrassed, lmao. “Nothin’ nice”, I used to say that all the time back in high school. “Be easy”, probably haven’t said that in years.

That’s probably enough out of me, haha

I don't use snag anymore cause apparently it is viewed as a feminist word. I also don't use market value when describing a guy's romantic value cause I once did that and it had bad results. And I don't use the word feminist cause it seems to annoy people.

Fesh (short for professional). A compliment when someone did something impressive. "Dude, that was fesh!"

Hard core. Referred to something extreme.

Referring to girls as chicks isn't PC anymore.

Groovy. I don't remember saying it much, but it's a once popular word that has virtually disappeared.

Calling guys references to homosexuality, including one that is now considered a pejorative.

I have a good "bone structure" i think that the girls use this between the 1950's and 1960's it means that she's naturally beautiful and sexy 🤣

When i was a kid i watched a movie in black and white and the girl in the movie always mentioned the bone structaaa word 😂
