Misstep right out of the gate! It's "juh-LOP-ee", not "JAL-uh-pee"; and "spazz" usually meant someone clumsy and uncoordinated - like me trying to dribble a basketball. Most of us boomers wouldn't be caught dead using these because even we know they've long been out of currency. Give us a little credit - whippersnapper...

Way Cool! Far out Man! Totally Awesome Dude! Way to go! Tubular!

Very nicely done❤❤❤❤❤

[@joyanders3968]

Got them all, they were all words I heard and used when I was a LOT younger. Cool quiz.

[@What_Makes_Climate_Tick]

Funny how "hang loose" and "hang tight" both sort of mean "wait". And that pronunciation of "jalopy" was like fingernails on a chalkboard, also a rather outdated expression.

[@laural5177]

Brought back cool memories. I still say bummer.

[@sherylsoreson9790]

Missed 1--fry answer. But disagree on your definition of Bogart. Bogie would cradle his cigarette in his hand...indicating he was protectiing it from anyone else sharing it.

[@chrissteed8170]

🎉35/35🎉With question number four I was thinking, “It would be a real bummer to miss this one.”

[@airborne5642]

I made a comment using the term “bouncing a check “ in front of my 20 something colleagues. She said “I don’t know what that means.” Debit cards and credit cards are used instead of checks.

[@JayJay-iq3fj]

Cool quiz 👌

[@rufust.firefly4890]

34/35. Never heard of What a fry. My definition of spaz is not the one listed here.

[@gr8scott198]

"Dude!"

[@241sail6]

I missed 3, 2 of them I've never heard before and 1 second guessed myself. Good test.

In the 60's i heard "COOL AS A ROACH" from my sister !
FORD cars had a bad saying about them in the 60's: "FIX OR REPAIR DAILY" & "FOUND ON THE ROAD DEAD" .

[@gr8scott198]

"Give me some skin!" has always meant to give someone five, or even ten.
Like a high-five, for instance.

[@elemar5]

It actually means to shake hands. High 5s are American.

[@gr8scott198]

@@elemar5 I don't like to admit this to others lately, but I'm an "American", too.

JAL a py? no way. It's a clunker.

I'm surprised that I id as well as i did. Missed 3.

[@auldfouter8661]

Not convinced about question 12. The cat's pyjamas and really something are both approving terms.

[@rufust.firefly4890]

I always thought it was the cat's meow . Had heard of bees knees, but that's before my time.

[@elemar5]

The cats whiskers.

[@roborbeck9880]

31/35. Missed 4.
