Do you still use phrases like Groovy,right on or far out?

I was born in 1981 and I still use 70's words I'm not sure why I suppose because I know a few people who still do. I also watch a lot of movies and listen to music from that era so that's bound to have an influence.

Yep, why not, how can I forget the slangs, I used to, use often with my close friends. Catch you later.

I use groovy a lot. That's kind of sad in a way, because I wasn't even born until 1980. I have no idea why I like that word, but I do. The thing that I say that people think is old-fashioned is "lovely". I am far more likely to say "Have a lovely day" than "Have a nice day" and people think it's strange. I've been told I sound like someone's grandmother a LOT.

no I dont they are rather outdated and i trying to act younger than i realy am .however the only person i decieveis myself LOL!

I don't use those phrases, I was a teen in the 90's so I say "not!" and "awesome" a lot. I know what you're talking about, my mom was around back then-did I just make you feel old? lol Didn't mean to ;)

Hey man, I can dig it. The young ones are just so uptight because you're obiously so much more groovy than them.

I still say Cool alot and I was a teen in the 50s

Hi twils of for sure I can dig it!LOL Im always saying cool. I dont think that word will ever go out. Now listen your making me feel old.LOL Oh to be young again! Care free and just hanging out no worries in the world. Now back to the real world!LOL

Chill man.....I grew up in the 70's and I still use only a couple...Cheers I use a lot and Cool...They are about the only ones though...

LOL! I love this discussion! I grew up in the 60s and 70s too, and I still use "right on" and "cool" too. I also use "neat" and "neat-o". My kids look at me like I've totally lost it, and actually call me a dork. But.....I catch them using the phrases every once in a while. So I know they picked them up from good ol' mom. LOL

I can dig it man. I grew up in the 70's and I still use all those groovy phrases.It's cool to use them.It is far out to hear that I'm not alone. Stay cool man.

life's a garden , can you dig it/? lol I still say cool. or right on. But i don't think i ever said groovy lol. i remember seeing a patty duke episode where she was eating meat and she told her dad the steak was "tough" guess back then it meant cool. I'm not sure what they use today. I have used oh my gawd and rad. lol

Well, these are not really used slangs anymore...but then again - the current generation doesn't have any "cool" or "groovy" slangs. They do a lot of retro stuff with 70's and 80's music - even some 60's stuff - but I don't think they know it is retro :)

I still use the word cool even though people have seemed to have replacedi it with"sweet". Once in a while i have been known to use the phrase "ya dig",and you should see the looks I get!

I dig your discussion.God I found a person of my era.I still smoke a f a g,spend bucks,dig groovy things,and get strange looks too.i don't want to change cause I think I am smarter than most of these young morons.

Back then I used the phrase "cool" all of the time. It went out of fashion and then back in, so now I'm "cool" again! LOL

I grew up in the 60's and 70's too and I still use these phrases and get those weird looks too. People I know are from that era and some of them use these phrases and we know what we mean when we say them. But some of the younger ones look at us like are you talking a different language or what? But then I lived in Mass and they use pisser when something is cool or good. I got a giggle out of that when I first heard someone say that something was pisser. Bet they get giggles out of the way we talk when we say something is cool.

lol i have been saying that groovy for a while now, and yer thinking about it, its funny as its words like thats cool or what ever else the kids come up with thses days.. i can dig it lol.. hugssssssssss

Believe me, you're not the only one. In fact, where I live some of the kids use cool and far out. I think "That 70s Show" has a lot of kids using the old stuff. I prefer "farm out" which, I think, Mad Magazine started. I really get looks from that. I use "that'll work" a lot, and of course some of the newer stuff. Here in West Virginia "Git 'er done" is very popular. I loved the 70s. I can't bring to mind a particular phrase at this point, but I use stuff my father and mother used when I was growing up, and I'm 65, so it's not just a 70s thing.
