I miss calling women honeys. It was nice, it was sweet. Young guys now just call them either baddies or thotties, with no in between. I called somebody a dime the other day and these guys had no idea what I meant, quite possibly because they've never used a denomination of change smaller than a quarter. Anything less than that just goes down a Coinstar machine, I guess.

Ten years ago in a bar, somebody asked me, "Remember when everybody said trey cool? Like, that was trey cool, man." I did not, but it seems like something that happened.

I used to think that 'très bien' meant three times the regular amount of bien.

I still do.

What are we talking about here?

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


"They're not going off to play cards" as a euphemism for having sex

You're fucking great,
just do what you can.
Back in high school in the early nineties, in southern Ontario, "chid" was heard constantly.

Mainly describing something stupid or lame, Be it a thing or person.

I've never heard it used anywhere else in any context outside of that short period from the early to mid nineties.

Skid was another. A type of person into metal, thrash, etc.
I think this was more widespread, but only in Canada.

The intro to Vancouver based (at the time) band Skinny Puppy's song scrapyard (from 1991) has a sample of someone saying "I'm a skid I'm a skid I'm a skid" over and over.

Maybe its just the more refined circles I now move in, but I haven't heard anyone declare they were "going for a dump" in recent memory.

Or "plant-based diet", which seems easier for some folks to swallow
