    here are a few

    skinney
    real deal or truth ex "let me give you the slinney on the deal"

    ' Can You Dig It'
    Do you understand? " Can you dig it man?"

    ' Psyche'!!!
    To trick someone. To b.s. someone. As if to psyche them out.

    'Bogue'
    Used to describe something offensive or an unrealistic idea. "That's so Bogue" or "That's Bogue" or "Bogue, man..."

    'Bootin'
    as in; Are you going Bootin? "I'm going Roller Bootin" or rollerskating

    The 'Crib' and going to the 'Gig'
    The "crib" was going home or to someone else's house, and "gig" was work or job.

    'Don't Be Such A 'spaz'
    A 'spaz' was someone that was accident prone,clutsy, or just acting stupid.

    'Dream On'
    a term used to get someone down to earth, or tell them they are being unrealistic about something, e.g. when someone would say, "I'm getting a brand new car!" you'd respond, "Yeah, right; dream on man!"

    'Far Out'
    cool

    'Good night, John-boy.'
    An annoying phrase popularized by the entire cast of "the Waltons" -- except by John-boy" (Richard Thomas) himself.

    'In Your Face!' (or simply, 'Face!')
    I have succeeded in embarrassing or up-staging you (usually as through an exceptional play in basketball).

    'Lay A Gasser'
    to fart.

    'May The Force Be With You'
    The most popular line from one of the greatest movies of the 70s(and of all time) StarWars.

    'Phony'
    To describe an overbearing, "two faced", or deceitful person or thing. Also: "Phony Baloney" which then became: "Baloney" which is an active form, used to instantly dismiss the phony person or utterance.

    'That's Sick!'
    A Midwestern phrase in the late 70's. To describe something odd or unusual. Not necessarily an person or object of distaste, but something suspect but also intriguing. "Sick!"

    'The Man'
    the man to me means any authority, corporations, police, government, they're all the man tho first used in the 60's by the hippies it live through the 70's,80's,90's and still to this day

    'To The Max'!
    Take it to the maximum. The best it can be.

    'You Know'
    This was said at the end of nearly every sentence

    'You're So Stunned'
    Meaning the person acted or said something stupid, dumb.

    'Your Mama'
    "Your Mama" was said a lot of my school, with also "Joe Mama." With "Happy Days" that brought us the word "Nerd" which was VERY popular.

    'book' Or 'booking'
    to run quickly, usually away from something. (ie The cops were after hi so he was booking down the street.)

    'bunny'
    a cute girl

    'catch You On The Flip~side'
    see you later

    'cheese-eater'
    I'm pretty sure the definition you list for a brown-noser - "cheesier" - is in fact supposed to be "cheese-eater." I've heard cheese-eater used numerous times as a synonym for a suck-up, but never cheesier. Is it possible that someone mis-heard "cheese-eater" and just always heard it as "cheesier"?

    'chill' 'be Cool'
    relax, man!

    'city'
    everything had "city" after it. That was cool-city.

    'fab'
    same as fabulous. ex: "that movie was fab"

    'feel Tha Funk'
    feel the music. get down wit da boogie.

    'fool That You Are'
    it is like saying "dork" or "goofball". also like saying you know that you are a dork in a playing around tone or way.

    'get Down,' Or, 'boogie'
    dance

    The 'izz'
    This term was created in the late 1970s and made it's way through the 2000s. The use of "izz" is still popular. c"izz"ash= cash fo' sh"izz"le= for sure b"izz"o= bitch b"izz"nitch= bitch r"izz"ide= ride(car) sm"izz"oke= smoke "izz"ass= ass ......and so one. It's like pig latin, really fun, you should try it out.

    'keep On Truckin''
    go w/ the flow

    'like'
    Beginning every sentence with "like". "Like we went to the mall and like I saw him looking at me."

    'like'
    I do believe the term 'like' was used in the 70s by Americans and has been used ever since. Recently the British have adopted the phrase especially since the popularity of cult sitcom 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S'. The phrase is used in various ways usually by teeneagers and 20 somethings who automatically, subcociuously add a toutch of 'trendiness' to thier sentances. For instance: "Like, let's get outa here!" "Like, no way!" "This is like way cool guys"

    'looo-king Gooood!'
    a phrase popularized by the late Freddie Prinz Sr. on the tv sitcom "Chico and the man."

    'putz'
    jEWISH SLANG FOR SOMEONE WHO A CONSTANT SCREW UP OR FOUL UP OR JUST BEING A JERK

    'right On' !!
    Right on--was a slang used for hep people when you agreed to something ex: Are you going to the club tonight--Right on!

    'to The Max.'
    Taken to an extreme. As in: That dude is so bitchen, to the max.

    'what It Is, What It Is'
    a greeting usually meaning,"hey", "What's up?"

    ...with
    Ending a question or sentence using the word "with" has been used in the scandinavian communities of the mid-west since the early 70's. I remember getting flack from people we visited out east, in Boston, during the bicentenial when I used it that way.

    Bear or Smokey
    Thought you might be interested to know that my dad, Al Corban, who is 87 years old and was a long-time trucker and driver says he originated the term "smokey" and by the same action originated the term "bear". In Montana, where he was operating for most of his life, there was a hauling job in which timber was being taken out of a National Forest area. Because of that the Forest Service had people checking the trucks to see that they were meeting all the standards. In fact, they could issue tickets and fines. The truckers would call each other when one was spotted somewhere and warn others about their presence. Since they wore the standard uniform with the "Smokey the Bear" hats, Dad started talking about them on his radio as "Smokey Bears" or, as it was quickly shortened to, "Smokies",a "smokey" or "Bear(s)". As time went on the term naturally got picked up and applied to any mobile law officer or any officer in general.

    trippy or trippin

    in the early 80's there was this redneck from Oregon and we were drinking. one time he said "what's the gig, orville"?

    from that point on, for the next five (5) years or so, I would great people "what's the gig, orville"?



    there was this quote from Zombie Land that I started saying. Woodie Harrilson said it....

    "how's your hammer hanging?"

    so for a while, when I'd greet my buddies, I'd ask them "how's your hammer hanging?"
