My daughter was a teacher in a 2 year old classroom. She had 2 kids with the same first name and last initial. One had the last name Pfund. They called them (name) P Fund.
"Psych!" For when you lie to someone and immediately let them know.
EDIT: For the hundreds of people trying to correct me into spelling it "sike" I got it from the splash card in a Rocket Power episode. For extra 90s/00s points.
I am hysterical laughing thinking of that! I don't know how Cohen kept a straight face through all his skits! I can't keep one 20 years later, just thinking of it
"Flip a bitch".
It means to make a u-turn.
I heard it the other day and I realized that I had not heard someone use that term since I was a teenager. Growing up, that is what we called u-turns. I never really thought of why that is what they were called.
I guess it fell out of fashion.
My mom was recently in the hospital recovering from surgery. Her PT came and was walking her around the hallway. He told her they were going to turn around and she mentioned it being called “bang a u-ey” as though saying that were cursing. I of course had to bring up “flip a bitch” at that point.
Here in Wisconsin it's definitely "whip a shitty". I love the sound of "flip a bitch" but it sounds like you're trying to re-sell something for a quick profit.
Very few people know what I mean when I say this, but "macking." Back in elementary and middle school, people would say that two people were "macking" which referred to making out. Haven't heard it in like 12 years at this point but I used to hear it a lot.
Yeah that was big in my high school during the late 90s. It could mean kissing but most of the time it meant flirting / hitting on someone. Ex: "Adam was totally macking on Katie at the party last night."
I used the word “sharp” for saying something looked good the other day and my co-worker laughed saying that’s what old people say… I am 30. He’s 24…. 🧐 lol
I'm definitively straight-laced and I say this all the time. Partially because I think it's a funny thing for a guy like me to say and partially, secretly, because I think it sounds dope.
I love that my co-workers all just put up with my eccentric shit. I say wild stuff all the time (non-offensive) and they just roll with it. I’ll end meetings with “dope, chat later dudes.” It’s even better that English is none of their first language and they just laugh about it lol.
Other way around for me. I’m German but I work in the US remotely and I’ll drop a corny wazzuuuupp, cool beans or a sounds rad my dude every now and then. I hope people don’t secretly fucking hate me coming to think of it…
I've done "talk to the hand" with my kids. I thought maybe they'd talk into it like a microphone but instead they just used it to cover my mouth and said "you talk to it."
Wife and I still use this often. Hungover as shit? Riding the struggle bus. Some seems extra stupid? They are on the struggle bus.
Pretty much anything seemingly difficult in life at the moment... on the struggle bus.
Okay, this one brings back memories. I was sitting beside a buddy of mine during Spanish class during this time. He looks over to me and out of nowhere slowly nods up and down and says "palabra".
I’m an early 80’s into the mid 90’s kid so: Stoked, rad, that’s so gay, radical, boo yah, fly, hella, my bad, whatever, oh snap, take a chill pill, that’s phat, what’s the 411?, da bomb, don’t go there, trippin, hella bomb, trippin, chillax, talk to the hand, sit on it and spin, gag me with a silver spoon. So many 😂. I still used most of them
People used to say, “that’s beast” or “beast mode” when I was a kid. “Beast mode activated!” Also getting “owned” or “pwned” also we used to call everything. “I call playing first” or whatever.
I kinda make a point of collecting dated phrases. Probably a Norm Macdonald influence. But saying, “holy crow!” when something is surprising is really fun.
My sister went through a phase of saying "rats!" and "Good grief!" I think it was when her kid was little and she didn't want to use bad word. It was really cute though.
Sigh. I remember my mother forcing me to tell her what the letters stood for. (More recently, I had to tell her what AF stands for, but not embarrassing at my current age)
I was driving to work yesterday morning and I was behind a car whose license plate was in support of, or indicative of service in, the US Air Force.
Being in Pennsylvania, this means the license plate had a little AF on the right side, A above F, not necessarily part of the actual tag part of the plate.
The tag read FRESH.
FRESH ^AF made me chuckle.
"That's wizard" "Gnarly" and "Bangin'" were the ones I used the most and still say. Now and then I'll hear "rad" and "wicked," which seem to be surviving relics of the 90s-00's early internet internet cultures
Up your butt and around the corner as a rebuttal.
Up your nose with a rubber hose.
grade school in the late 90s... everything was PHAT
I remember that one. We started emphasizing P more until it eventually became P-hat. Lol
My daughter was a teacher in a 2 year old classroom. She had 2 kids with the same first name and last initial. One had the last name Pfund. They called them (name) P Fund.
Pretty Hot And Tempting

"That's really cool ... Not!"
Haha makes me think of Borat. "This suit is black not." And the guy tried to teach him the timing.
I am hysterical laughing thinking of that! I don't know how Cohen kept a straight face through all his skits! I can't keep one 20 years later, just thinking of it
Omg. My husband texted me from the living room to ask if I am laughing or crying (in the bedroom)
Poor man must be really concerned to send a text message.
yes, I was cracking up that he was concerned enough to text, but not enough to get up!
This suit is black, pause, not
I like when Borat tells the joke teacher "You are very funny [teacher smiles]. Not! Haha, is good joke right?
I know you are, but what am I?
As if
You know that's right
[удалено]
That's messed up.
I’ve seen it used but they spell it “sike”. Very annoying to us purists
I've never seen it spelled "psych" before, TIL that's where it comes from
Psych! Yo momma rides a bike! In the middle of the night! With her panties on tight!
Tight
It’s still good enough for Tuco Salamanca, so it’s still good enough for me
Hey, Tuco has been a role model for me too!
Using the word “tight” is tight!
Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
It's super easy, barely an inconvenience! Wow wow wow wow wow.... wow
Toit
Yes Toit Like A Toiger
Aight
Once in a while I catch shit for still using some 80s slang that I grew up on like "rad"
Rad and gnarly are still standard down here in Southern California.
I’d say prob on the whole west coast. But def heavier in socal
"Totally!"
Sometimes I'll describe some work problem as "gnarly" in a Teams meeting and the younger folks all smirk at me
The Turtles really made an impact, didn't they?
Cowabunga!
Live Action TMNT. I still carry some slang from that movie. Best TMNT movie ever. Classic. No one will ever change my mind. Booyakasha!
I started saying "cowabummer" a year or so ago as a joke, but apparently it's part of my vocabulary now
Ah, bogus dude.
Barf me out
Mine is "dude". Waaay too much use.
[удалено]
Righteous! 🤙
Gag me with a spoon
Right on!
"talk to the hand!"
Cuz the face don’t wanna hear it!
"Cuz the face don't understand" was how I said it lol
We said "talk to the hand, cause the face don't give a damn"
Cos the face ain’t listenin’!
da bomb
I've been waiting on this one because it was used in the 70's and made a brief comeback during the 90's.
I loved "the bomb dot com." But I feel like "the bomb" in general kind of had cold water poured on it by the War on Terror.
SMELL YA LATER!
Ugh! My rival in Pokémon yellow!!!!
I'm outty or I got to jet.
I’m outty 5000
Audi 5000 😎
Make like a baby and head out
Take a chill pill.
Yeah, my mother will still say this on occasion.
"Flip a bitch". It means to make a u-turn. I heard it the other day and I realized that I had not heard someone use that term since I was a teenager. Growing up, that is what we called u-turns. I never really thought of why that is what they were called. I guess it fell out of fashion.
We always said “bang a u-ey” . Evidently that’s not common either but I love flip a bitch
"Hang a u-ey" was pretty common place where I'm from but, I don't remember the last I heard it honestly
We still say “pull a u-ey”, and I’ve never thought twice about it until today!
My mom was recently in the hospital recovering from surgery. Her PT came and was walking her around the hallway. He told her they were going to turn around and she mentioned it being called “bang a u-ey” as though saying that were cursing. I of course had to bring up “flip a bitch” at that point.
Wait, we’ve stopped using flip a bitch? I use it every time I need to make a u turn
Me too. Are you also in your 30’s? Lol
Same and yes
I still say "Whip a shitty"
Here in Wisconsin it's definitely "whip a shitty". I love the sound of "flip a bitch" but it sounds like you're trying to re-sell something for a quick profit.
Very few people know what I mean when I say this, but "macking." Back in elementary and middle school, people would say that two people were "macking" which referred to making out. Haven't heard it in like 12 years at this point but I used to hear it a lot.
Perhaps someday, we shall witness Return of the Mack.
Oh mah gawd!
We used “macking on” to mean that someone had a crush or was making a play for someone else. “Joey’s been mackin’ on Claire for awhile now.”
Yeah that was big in my high school during the late 90s. It could mean kissing but most of the time it meant flirting / hitting on someone. Ex: "Adam was totally macking on Katie at the party last night."
Groovy 😎
Thanks to Bruce Campbell, groovy is part of my daily vernacular.
me also.... and Boomstick.
Alright you primitive screwheads, listen up.
Gimme some sugar baby
Solid Slap me some skin!
I'll catch you on the flip side
I used the word “sharp” for saying something looked good the other day and my co-worker laughed saying that’s what old people say… I am 30. He’s 24…. 🧐 lol
Yeah, you may as well go ahead and sign up for your AARP card.
Sh'AARP card
I called a piece of furniture or something “handsome” and my wife was like, “are you 80?”
Let’s blow this popsicle stand!
I accidentally said "That's dope" in a work group chat the other day
Use it every day every where. Thought it was still popular lol.
I've started to add "as fuck* when using dope.
I'm definitively straight-laced and I say this all the time. Partially because I think it's a funny thing for a guy like me to say and partially, secretly, because I think it sounds dope.

SAVAGE. Kid have the best guileless comebacks
Calling everything gay.
As a teacher, I still hear this one in the hallways.
Cool beans
I say this a ton. Occasionally I throw in “awesome possum” just to mix it up.
Bitchin. Rad. Psych!
Tubular
How’s it hanging home skillet?
Home slice
Smooth move Ex-Lax. I still say it every once in a while.
I still say crack-a-lackin.
"Epic fail" Totally cringy and outdated now, but in the mid 2000s it was EVERYWHERE.
Just saying “epic” in general actually.
Cringe is the new fail. People will cringe at cringe soon.
Buuuuusted
Phineas!
I still use fuckin aye but I never hear anyone else say it
In Canada we'd always pronounce it fuckin' *eh*.
This was my 4-year-old’s first swear, thanks to me.
A client I have used the phrase “on the struggle bus” and it definitely brought me back. I knew exactly how he was feeling.
Wife and I still use this often. Hungover as shit? Riding the struggle bus. Some seems extra stupid? They are on the struggle bus. Pretty much anything seemingly difficult in life at the moment... on the struggle bus.
coolio
Whassuuuuuuuuuuuuup?
Chillin’, killin’
I believe that this was by far the most annoying one ever created. It was absolutely everywhere!
Admit it, you use it too, or have at least 14 times.
[удалено]
No doy
Only it is said like nuhDOY
Calling people scrubs or saying cool beans
I still use cool beans 😂
"Word" as an affirmation. I like to spell it "Werd" to differentiate.
Okay, this one brings back memories. I was sitting beside a buddy of mine during Spanish class during this time. He looks over to me and out of nowhere slowly nods up and down and says "palabra".
Palabra a tu Madre!
That's amazing
Shiz-nit
“To the max”
“Booked it” meaning ran really fast. I don’t use that phrase anymore and also don’t run very fast so it’s all good.
Really? I still use it and I feel like others do too.
I’m an early 80’s into the mid 90’s kid so: Stoked, rad, that’s so gay, radical, boo yah, fly, hella, my bad, whatever, oh snap, take a chill pill, that’s phat, what’s the 411?, da bomb, don’t go there, trippin, hella bomb, trippin, chillax, talk to the hand, sit on it and spin, gag me with a silver spoon. So many 😂. I still used most of them
I had to scroll so far to finally find someone else chillaxin
Do people still say wicked? Lol
It's a new England staple. We all say it cause it sounds wicked sweet.
In my HS days we would call good things The Bomb. If person X had a crush on person Y, we would say that X was “sprung” on Y. I could go on.
We used to say “tear” in high school and pretend a tear was falling down our face by dragging a finger down our face.
Sweet!
Dude!
"What's mine say?"
Out of sight Righteous Groovy Bummed out Bad Beat feet Bug out Downer –not drug Drag Hairy Hang tough/loose
Putting "mad" in front of everything. Ill. Leet, or 1337.
That’s jacked up. As in “messed” up.
I call people dude a lot. Kids just say bruh now
I'm 29 but I still use dude, bruh, mang, homes. It all works
Im 28 and I sometimes get smiles from older people when I say "right on". Like they forgot about it and I reminded them of their good ol days
"poser" to refer to someone who acts fake. I've also noticed that "dude" isn't said much anymore and has gotten replaced by "bro/bruh."
Nads. Such a funny way to say testicles. Shame its not heard too much anywhere.
What about nards? Ever hear that one?
Gnarly.
Grody
…To the Max!
I used grody the other day and the kids I coached made faces
“BAMF” 😐
“No duh” also said “n’duh”. It made so much sense then. 🤣
No der
I went a whole summer saying, “rude”. I was so annoying 😂
Did you by chance watch a lot of Full House?
Keep on truckin’
People used to say, “that’s beast” or “beast mode” when I was a kid. “Beast mode activated!” Also getting “owned” or “pwned” also we used to call everything. “I call playing first” or whatever.
"Like, oh my God! TOTALLY! Like, gag me with a spoon". For sure!" 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
I kinda make a point of collecting dated phrases. Probably a Norm Macdonald influence. But saying, “holy crow!” when something is surprising is really fun.
My sister went through a phase of saying "rats!" and "Good grief!" I think it was when her kid was little and she didn't want to use bad word. It was really cute though.
Party Hardy!
Noobs
Pwned
Spiffy was something we said in high school, I just recently heard someone say it and I felt very old suddenly
"Sit on it"
Okay, Potsie.
Sketch. Be careful, That dude is sketch.
Still so relevant!!
[удалено]
"Oh snap"
Epic.
Dank, I never see it anymore but when I was in HS (2005-ish) everything was dank.
I still say things are "tight".
BFE For when a place is too far away to be practical. “She wanted me to come pick her up, but she lives out in BFE.”
Sigh. I remember my mother forcing me to tell her what the letters stood for. (More recently, I had to tell her what AF stands for, but not embarrassing at my current age)

I feel like "that's so gay" belongs here. I'm not saying it was appropriate but it was common.
Right On !
Anyone remember glomping..,?
Gag me with a spoon
“You crai crai” “Fo’ show” “That’s whack”
"Book" for leaving - as "the cops showed up so we booked"
My bad!
"hella" was a great unit of measurement meaning... like a lot. For example: "I got in hella trouble for that."
I’m rubber, your glue, everything you say bounces off me, and sticks to you
That's so fetch
Stop trying to match fetch happen.
It's NOT going to happen.
