Today I was talking with one of the kids... and car drove by us on the highway going a little quicker than us...80 by my eye-crometer/radar gun.

She said,”they are going fast.”

I said,” yea! They’re really Holly Machen’!”
Now that term, I got when I was a lil older, but that made me think of “bookin”!
Like, “I booked over to the store to get the new Spider-Man comic...”


What do you recall, or what where some of the terms you recall.


Try to keep it on the clean side, everyday use sorta thing.


Cheers.

Truckin’

I remember being a kid and Semis would blow your doors off on the highway constantly. Not so much anymore.

We came up on a crazy heavy rain the other day and I said man what a gully washer. My boys thought that was the funniest phrase and now anytime it rains it is a fully washer.
It is funny the things kids get a kick out of.

Hauling ass, or in more polite company, substitute buns or butt. Flying by like I'm standing still/parked. If on foot, booking (out of there) or beating feet.
