Dank was cold and wet, now it means something is good.
Slaps was hitting something with an open hand, now it means something is good.

Daughter: “Dad, that pizza slaps”.
Me: “What does that mean”?
Daughter: “It was dank”.
Me: “What does that mean”?
Daughter: “it was good”.
Me: “Oh, okay, good”.

There are so many more like that.  I have four daughters and the youngest is 16.  I’ve learned a lot about today’s youth.

A fag was a cigarette and a faggot was a small piece of wood for starting a fire.

Gay meant you were happy.

The story goes that after Noah's Ark and the Flood, there was a rainbow after the rain stopped.  It was God's promise to his people he would never again flood the earth.

"Racist" meant that you felt that one or more races were inherently inferior.

Now it means that you have a different opinion.

Comunisim, killing unborn children, sodomy, infidelity, vulgarity, lewdness, were once all bad things.

Patriotism, masculinity, chivalry, god, and family were all good things.

I remember what it's like to live in an actual community. And when people solved most of their own problems like in a civilization before the internet nullified people by giving them an infinite feedback loop to complain about them. When anything threatened America; men stood up, bled, and died to preserve it.

Those were good times.....

Im not old enough to have used it, but i remember WW2 era guys who used the term "cock" for pussy. As in:

"My buddy and me would load up in my cock-wagon and go find some cock about every Saturday night in Anniston. "  

My brother and i cracked up hearing that. Old dude (Pacific theater fighter pilot) wondered what we found so amusing. Pissed, even.  He told us that is what they called pussy "in his day".  He was not the only one of that age i heard it from either.

Guess it's akin to me cracking up my daughter's friends when i said: "I have remove a bad tranny from my truck." They thought that hilarious.

I remember when " hero" was reserved for those who endured severe adversity or certain death for the benefit of God, family,  or country.  War heroes, earners of the CMH, or on the imaginary side guys in tight suits who stood for truth, justice and the American  way.
Now it is applied to malcontents, communist sympathizers, self-described victims and anyone in a fireman uniform.

I’m old enough that when you called someone you didn’t ask “where are you? Or where ya at?” Bc you were calling their house

I’m old enough to remember a time you didn’t worry about locking the doors to your car or home if away for a short period of time

That the hand signal for talking on the phone meant using your thumb and pinky extended out.


Seriously, if you have young kids ask them to use their hand to pretend to answer the phone. They'll probably put their flat hand against their ear.

That's when a sport was a sportAnd groovin' was groovin'
And dancin' meant everything
We were young, and we were improvin'
Laughin', laughin' with our friends
Holdin' hands meant somethin', baby
Outside the club Cherry Bomb
Our hearts were really thumpin'
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
The winter days, they last forever
But the weekends went by so quick
Went ridin' around this little country town
We were goin' nuts, girl, out in the sticks
One night, me with my big mouth
A couple guys had to put me in my place
When I see those guys these days
We just laugh and say, "Do you remember when?"
