Yes all of the things you listed are good examples of things people say now but never did in the 80's.  Most kids didn't even have cell phones then and they do now.

The  one that use to get me on the computer  was "FATAL ERROR", we were all so new with computers that we thought we had ruined it.  LOL  And we had to have a 8 x8 room to keep the computer equipment in.

1) I am a non-binary person.

2) I self-identify as a trans female and deserve to compete in female sports.

3) Crypto is the way to go now.

4) You are cancelled because you offended me by saying something I didn't like.

5) There's no bail now, so just go out and commit crimes again.

6) Kill the cops!

Shall I go on. I'm really depressed now.  :sad1:

I'm taking a slight twist on the question as something people probably DID say in the 80's, but it meant a very different thing when said in the 80's than in the today's.


"Remember the 70's when O.J. Simpson and Bruce Jenner were known for NFL Football and the Olympic decathlon? My how things have changed!"
