Old School slang
Okay folks, I am really about to tell my age. Remember the "old school slang" that we use to use on the playground:
1. Sike 2. Fresh 3. Dope 4. Bad (as in good) 5. The all time two favorites: Word and Def *Def Jam records put the word Def in the grave. :cool: :D |
"You be illin'..."
Girrrrrl, some of this may be regional or even just for GA folks, but we had a few others, too.
1. Bustin - same as "fresh" 2. I don't think I can spell it ---> "Uway" ---> like in the song by those two dudes talkin bout gettin "slizzard". Uway was out when I was in 4th grade, so I know that's old. 3. Hype - how can you forget? Ya know, I never thought we would get back to saying "hot" or "cool" again, but look at how we recycle everything. Because we keep recycling styles, I'm boycotting the '80s styles. No rectangle or square jewelry, no neon colors, and it there definitely will not be any side ponytails for any reason. :eek: What's up with that, especially in the videos? jojapeach |
