Rad
Beans (as in "That's the beans!")
Gnarly
Groovy
Milk drinker (as an insult. It means "You're a baby that still drinks milk" good for insulting white people)
As an old white milk drinker who still unironically says rad, I can say with some authority that it was always “cool beans” and never just “beans”.
I use rad, gnarly and groovy daily. I'd like to see some old timey insults come back like Blockhead or Pumpkin Lilly
I don’t know. Saying “milk drinker” makes you sound like a total Melvin.
Having to assert you aren't a Melvin is a prime characteristic of a Melvin
It is an invocation of your name, and the coolness it brings forth. Grouse as a mouse in a house
Gen Z still uses sick and dope pretty often, not out of use in the same way rad or groovy are
I've literally never heard "grouse" before tho lmao
I still use rad, albeit exclusively to refer to animals irl and monster designs in media.
"That's a rad little dude." -me, looking at cool bug.
I want the word humbug to come back. I want to call someone a pettifogging humbug like it's the 1890s.
It's still in use in Australia. Generally by adults that were about to say fuck then realised there are toddlers present.
