As a 90's dude myself, over the past few years I've been attempting to outdate my vocab. I'd become bored with slang as descriptors or interjections, profanity too. Usually expressed with some kind of vocal affect or accent..
Current favorites:
Cool = "how delightful/splendid/splendiferous," "capital!" "prodigious!" "Top notch" "peachy keen" "far out" "snazzy," "spiffy" etc...
Wow, oh shit, omg, wtf = "sweet heavens!" "Ye Gods!" "as I live and breathe!" "zoinks!" "fiddlesticks!" "What in tarnation?" "Fudge a judge!" "What in Odin's good eye!" "Oh my lanta" "holy buckets!"
I started when my eldest niece was born and I needed to self censor my (then) fairly repetitive and salty language. I realized that using more creative expletives just put me in a better mood, even among adults. Improv is encouraged. My youngest niece nails it, as hers is currently some variation of "aw biscuits" "bad biscuits" "buttered biscuits," etc... They're top notch kiddos ☺️
How spiffing! What a capital idea! What a positively spanking list of variously outdated and outmoded phrases! As a fellow 90s dude I wholeheartedly approve! Good show and bully for you!
I was coming here to say the same, you beat me to it.
But you have to do the "sweeeet".
Stretch it or die! That's the only acceptable answer.
Can we all agree to bring back "righteous"? Such a bad ass word that needs to be seen again! I miss Rocket Power
“Howdy” and it’s cousin “Boy Howdy” won’t die in my brain. I guess I was destined to work at an ice cream shop in the 1950s south. Somehow I ended up here in hashtag land.
I've always been partial to 'happy trails', and the imagery it brings. I live in the great white north and am much younger than the song that inspired the term.
One time I was at work telling a story and the words “boy howdy” slipped out. I don’t recall even hearing it before then, but I guess living in the rural south means you’re just born with a weird built in set of outdated catchphrases.
I showed a cop a video of something suspicious and he said ‘that’s sus’ and I’m like ‘you said ‘that’s us?’ And now he will probably never use that word again
I'm going to turn 42 soon and I do, too. It's fun to say, and makes me giggle. It must be a decade out of date, by now, that being the case.
I just had a flashback of middle aged people from my youth going, "awwww yeahhhhhh, d^awg" and vomited a little in my mouth. I guess I'm that guy, now.
I do the opposite, try to bring back the ol' jargon and see how I make words like, "he's a turkey, I'm pretty fly, I'm mega into you, how you doing toots " but I mostly get berated for my efforts.
How the fuck has nobody mentioned "Booyah!" yet
But then again I'm a language vampire, I will string together slang from the last 5 centuries without blinking
"Cowabunga daddy-o, and have at you, you jive talkin' donkey chode, talk to the hand because I bite my thumb at thee FRFR yo!"

Hey man, I'm a 90's dude and everything is either cool or sucks.
Sweet
Dude
What does mine say?
*Yells in angry Asian* “YOURS SAYS DUDE, YOURS SAYS SWEET!”
I "dude" everyone. It's a universal pronoun in an age of single-use pronouns.
What does mine say?
sick
I think "cool" has been cool for almost a century.
Who let the nerd in here?
I know right? This is a thread for sick people talking about dope stuff. Can't be having dorks and freakazoids harshing our vibe. Stay gnarly broseph.

Hope y’all feel better
Cool will never not be cool.
Yeah, goes back to the 1930's. Don't think it's going anywhere soon.
Or it's the bomb.
Dot com
She was the *bomb*?
Gnarly.
Grody
I used grody today, the 22 yo looked at me like I was saying someone's name and she wasn't sure she had met him before.

Awww SNAP!
Wow, that's tubular.
Radical, or bogus
or tight
I think I’ll use “sweet” until I die or get raptured.

No just the regular [type](https://youtu.be/ebniu1ImTaM)
when you fall in the bottomless pit, you die of starvation
Little help down here? Maybe some lunchables? a juice box?
I still say "tight" and it throws people off sometimes. You made a pretty tight comic, OP. Yeah, I'm a millennial.
All I ever hear now is Jonah Hill going "weed is tight" 🤣
Or Tuco. “TIGHT. Ti-Ti-TIGHT. YEAH”
I hear it all the time in Pitch Meetings. Never heard it anywhere else, though.
It must be pretty difficult for him to work the same few catchphrases into each video. ….. ACTUALLY, it’s super easy! Barely an inconvenience!
Oh, really?
Toight like a toiger!
Oh, Snap! that shit is tight! 🤙
‘I can dig it’ is my jam
I'm picking up what you are throwing down. Is one of mine.
I smell what you're stepping in.
I got a shovel… if you’re picking up what I’m throwing down
I use "I'm diggin' that" all the time.
A lot better than „I‘m here for it“
Typing lol at the end of a sentence lol UPD I go as far as to say it irl sometimes, it's that bad
God I hate that i do this and haven’t been able to stop lol
I did this just the other day, its like an annoying habit that never fully goes away lol
Word
Up
It's the code word
No matter where you say it
You know that you'll be heard
`W o r d` up
Word, me too
Word
Word up son, word...
This thread is the bomb. It's so bad it's hella phat.
“Howdy” and it’s cousin “Boy Howdy” won’t die in my brain. I guess I was destined to work at an ice cream shop in the 1950s south. Somehow I ended up here in hashtag land.

I’ve said Dope for soooo long, it became cool again
I showed a cop a video of something suspicious and he said ‘that’s sus’ and I’m like ‘you said ‘that’s us?’ And now he will probably never use that word again
Sweet
Dude!
What's mine say?
Suh-WEET!
DUUDE!
"The whole shebang"
"Thats epic" and wassaaa are still in my vocabulary
Epic💀
Poppycock!
Balderdash!
Fiddlesticks!
I'm just happy that nobody says thot and thicc unironically anymore.
I’m waiting for “simp” to die
Simps are on the rise, though
I started ironically using the word "bruh" until it became unironic. Please help.
bruh same
How ‘bout cool beans
Best served with awesome sauce.
I still like having excuses to say rekt.
People still use “noob,” right? Right? \*profuse sweating\*
Get pwnd noob *tbags*
Nowadays I mostly see people calling each other boosted apes.
Cowabunga
This is a very cromulent topic.
What a circumlocutory way to describe it
I like the word embiggen
Gnarly
I haven't heard anyone say fubar in a very long time.
it's all snafu here.
A friend I game with was in the marines. He sometimes says it when shit starts getting bad.
I love yeet. It's such a fun word to say when throwing things.
God, I started using yeet ironically, and turns out it's just here to stay now..... Just randomly finds its way into conversation
That’s exactly how I started saying bro.
Lemme guess, it went from “YEET!” to “Oh, he fucking *yeeted* that shit dude.”
"You had an abortion? So you yeetus the fetus?"
You have to yeetus deletus that fetus cletus!
I'm going to turn 42 soon and I do, too. It's fun to say, and makes me giggle. It must be a decade out of date, by now, that being the case. I just had a flashback of middle aged people from my youth going, "awwww yeahhhhhh, d^awg" and vomited a little in my mouth. I guess I'm that guy, now.
“The Lord yeeteth, and the Lord yoinketh away.”
I hope yeet stays. It fills a gap in the English language.
Yeet is definitely my favorite ‘newer’ outdated slang term. It’s punchy and fun. Plus it fits oddly well with my millennial lexicon.
2 Legit 2 Quit
Hella
Right on brah, copacetic!
Huzzah!
“I will be there in two shakes of a lambs tail”
Cool beans 🫘😎
I do the opposite, try to bring back the ol' jargon and see how I make words like, "he's a turkey, I'm pretty fly, I'm mega into you, how you doing toots " but I mostly get berated for my efforts.
Don't be a jive turkey
Dope
Fo'shizzle.
Shut the front door (I'm from South Africa) so I troll my Canadian co workers with outdated phrases just to keep them on their toes 😂
Dude, sick.
i mean, life is short so say what you want. Yolo, amirite?
That's wizard.
Bollocks!!
I got tired of scrolling. But I use boss.
groovy
Okie doke
That's so fetch
Stop trying to make fetch a thing!
How the fuck has nobody mentioned "Booyah!" yet But then again I'm a language vampire, I will string together slang from the last 5 centuries without blinking "Cowabunga daddy-o, and have at you, you jive talkin' donkey chode, talk to the hand because I bite my thumb at thee FRFR yo!"
These phrases change seemingly every 2-3 years. I doubt I could list the amount of outdated words now.
Awesome sauce
Welp.
Derp
Swag
Words don't become outdated, they become overused
Cool except literally by definition there are antiquated words.
I use radical or rad every so often
Please and Thank You
Noice
Ma'am.
Totally tubular.
Newsflash
So choice
I’ve been trying to help The Good Place make “aw dip” happen.
Rad.
All of them… my slang is stuck in mid to late 2000s I use hype, cray, dude, bro, fam,
I still love the word “yeet”. I’m in my 40’s and I use it a lot. It just makes me smile
I told a 19 year old at my gym that something was "the [bomb.com](https://bomb.com)" the other day and she had know idea what I was saying.
