"street" slang and getting older

[RustyPotato©]

i always thought i was quite grounded, down to earth and a rather modern young man. i know what is meant by most modern slang etc. however yesterday my 15 year old sister used a word i had never heard (what it was is neither relevant or repeatable) before. i am now obsolete

when did you first realise you were getting older?

The second I read this thread.


I don't feel old even though the slang has changed. The only time I feel my age is the day following a fight.

Don't take the heat from the mad crazy flavour!

Yeah, feel old now to

[joannag]

But do you feel that your generation's slang is the only real slang and the newcomers are just a pale imitation? (just like with music, clothes, books etc etc etc)

Im now worrying about saying things which may be interpretted as slang, just incase i seem too old to be saying it! Innit.

Timothy, behave! He's quite old isn't he? He looks like he's in his 30s to me. It's like the slang equivalent of my dad breakdancing at a wedding.

LOL! It sounds funny hearing that from a 21 year old!

Right now there's a 40 year old colleague playing with a miniature Scalectrix set in the office! You're as old as you feel.

Aight!



T to the I to the M - Westwood, is living proof that you should stop being a bad G long before you're in your 30's

I felt old when I went to a concert and was the oldest person there. There is also the conversation I had with a younger dude who thought Spiderbait were a new band?!
