Word Up and All That Jive Talk

I swear, I'm the oldest (relatively) young person I know. Just all behind on the times. Always late on a trend and at least 2 years behind on music (which I'm fine with, BTW). Nowadays, I'm beginning to wonder if I'm just stubborn to change or if I'm just slow as hell.

I used some terribly outdated slang the other day that warranted the
Baby Daniel Side-Eye™ . A friend and I were dining out at this horrible seafood restaurant and a guy walked by. My friend remarked that he was fine and I said, "Yeah, he got it going on!".

I could feel the words coming out and I swear my brain was trying to stop them, but it was too late. I turned turned beet red from embarrassment as my friend stared a WTF look at me in stunned amazement.


I just need you all to confirm that I am not the only young old person. Do you still wear your Cross Colours out to the mall with your kids? (WTH, do they still make Cross Colours, I know the internet was still an idea when these clothes went out of style, but they sho have a website.)(Link) Still trying to get your S-Curl to curl like that big headed dude in that group Troop(Link)?

Gail, no need to answer because you always say "cold chillin" whenever I ask you how you're doing.
