I specifically targeted age instead of decades. So now @Memento can join in... Give the slang word or phrase.
Mine would be "Bad," meaning good. Well before Michael Jackson thought to make a song about it when he was probably still in diapers, singing for the Jackson-Five..
I imagine:
@nighttrain was saying "Hey...." like Arthur Fonzerelli
@Allen2McVay was probably saying "Groovy!"
@Dodgersrf was saying "tripindicular"....or full on Spiccoli, "Dude, that was my head!"
@Merlin? Some word or phrase from Dance Fever with Danny Terrio...

Even if you see someone post's something, please give the region or where in town. I was in Whittier, CA at that time but shyte might be different in the Valley where Merlin was (Gag me with a Fork!)

I didn’t really have a phrase. I was a quiet kid, lost in her own world most of the time. Honestly, I don’t remember, haha.

These are things best learned over a cold one. But I have a few of them that go back. Like "right on" which I use rather frequently. :clinkingbeer:

Well here goes.....I grew up in Anaheim, California and spent my teen years saying, Bitchin'!!! Cars that were fast were bitchin' and girls that were pretty were also bitchin'.

As I've gotten older I'll admit I'm kinda glad that that word went away. I mean things are still Bitchin' but there's better ways to express oneself these days.

Fucking A.

And to @Loyal. Never in my life did I say "Groovy" ... You Jive Turkey.
Heh....that brings back even more memories....said that one a time or two.
Though I will certainly admit I NEVER said "Groovy." Yuck that doesn't sound "Bitchen" at all.....

Maybe some phrase from the Red Hot Chili Peppers? (favorite Band?)

When I was 10, “cherry” was all the rage.
10 years later I overused the phrase “ or what?” You gonna eat that or what? are we leaving now or what? A girlfriend had a tshirt silk screened with the phrase and gave it to me. I wore it for years until it fell apart.

All the ones we used to use wouldn’t be deemed acceptable these days.

whereabouts in Anaheim? As a small kid I watched as Disneyland was being built, also went to Loara High School.
And yeah back then "bitchen" was a word to describe "very cool".

Wow... really? I graduated from Loara High in '73. Always good to hear from a fellow Saxon!
Also, I lived close to Euclid and Ball Rd which was quite close to D-Land. Still remember the fireworks every night during the summer.
