What's a word you haven't heard used in years?

There's a John Mulaney joke about this

As a Canadian you should be more concerned with muskeg.

As a kid in 90s Australia I was also led to believe that quicksand was more of a threat than it turned out to be, lol

Bro isn't playing enough Fire Emblem.

Ditto to frankincense

I wish I could say the same. But my kids say it a lot..

"Antidisestablishmentarianism"

(To be fair, they like looking up words to see who can find the biggest ones.)

I say this almost daily lol

So "affordablehousing" then? 😂

Gnarly, dude.

Every time I see someone at work carrying tubes I can't help myself and say "totally tubular my dude!" Lol

Rad!

Bodacious!

Gnarly!

As a software developer, I actually use "truthy" and "falsy" pretty regularly for "the computer thinks this value is true/false"

Strategery

Oh, that's good. A new one for me!

From WordNet (r) 3.0 (2006) [wn]:

  vituperative
      adj 1: marked by harshly abusive criticism; "his scathing
             remarks about silly lady novelists"; "her vituperative
             railing" [syn: {scathing}, {vituperative}]

Cyberspace!

The Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It's not a big truck highway. It's a series of tubes.

Well that certainly cleared up any concussion I had about which dag you meant.

Maybe like embroidered dags?

I shout this at the cat when she's underfoot

I use this very regularly.

Skadoodle

Too right. Someone in my household reminded us that we used to use munted all the time, so we're bringing it back into our vocab, haha

Munted - mutated, fucked up, borken

We used to use rorted to mean... well it would be past tense for hitting a bong, "to rort" being the verb. I am in the UK and have no idea where that slang came from.

Lol this was such a big deal for no reason in like 2008.

The night was moist...

Keep your starship out of my backyard.

(JN Chaney book reference)

Have you read Russian news in the past decade? Defenestration is the preferred method of retirement in the Ruzzian government.

Wait, what? There were a lot of defenestrations recently, you haven't heard?

Hugs from an internet stranger.

250k baud or 500k baud?

I write firmware, this is a daily term

I will always love those old modem tones

Just realized I forgot about this one lol

Pronounced scoodin’ n’froody in case anybody was wondering.

That pimpin' Trill just Booyahed their symbiont all over the holodeck...

Bitch I'm trill, bitch I'm so trill

Haven't played any Splatoon lately?

"Pimpmobile" is one of my most-used terms!

It's how I describe my job.

Sorry Zeus! I didn't mean it!

I've watched the Irish YouTuber Jacksepticeye since I was a teenager and I remember in his earlier years he played a game about bumming cigarettes from people so naturally, he used the word "fag" a lot since it's super common slang in not-American countries. IIRC the response towards him after the fact pushed him to make a very serious but very informative apology later on.

Your lungs thank you.

Like a boss.

Is the Spoot in reference to Angry Beavers?!

I use "ass hat" and "clusterfuck" regularly.

I cannot resist labeling ridiculous things as clown shoes.

Why "licious" instead of "listic?"

It's GayLord, thankyouverymuch...

I think this word wins.

I don't remember owning a droid.
