      I call everyone baby. Young? Baby. Old? Baby. Man, woman, black, white, purple with green polka dots? “What’s up, baby? How are you?” I’m a middle aged white guy.

      There’s a 60-odd year old black guy that comes to one of the bars I frequent. I always greet him with “What’s up, baby?” He always says “Same old, baby, how you doin’?” I have no idea how that became normal because it feels so weird explaining it but it feels super normal saying it.

          Nope. It may be because of the tone. I don’t do an Austin Powers thing. I say it the same way I’d say buddy or friend.

          Thinking harder about it, generally if I’m meeting someone for the first time I use their name because I’m trying to get the hamster that runs the wheel in my brain to put their name somewhere I’ll remember it. By the time we’ve interacted a while it’s very likely they’ve seen me say it to half a dozen of my friends.

      I gave someone some somewhat joking advice to use “dogs” as a gender neutral alternative to “guys”. I ended up trying it just for fun and it stuck.

    My dad started texting koo in the mid 00s, meaning “cool”

    It wasn’t koo then and isn’t koo now but I use it almost daily.

    I don’t know if it even really counts as slang, but this happened to me and some buddies I played Rocket League with. Some guy kept spamming “Siiiick” in the quick chat for the littlest things, so we’d spam it back 3x as hard. Long story short, we still use it now like 7 or 8 years later.

    No one uses much 1930s and 1940s Hep Cat slang anymore and that’s a real shame because Cab Calloway went out of his way to promote it.

      I love this link.

      Considering it’s coming up pretty close to being a century old, I’m actually surprised how much of this has made it into the common lexicon.

      I feel like even the etymology on capped could be interesting and maybe share a common source with modern cap.

      I once heard it described as a verb tense of “yoink” and that made me feel a lot better about it slipping into my regular usage.
