Phrases from your childhood/ teenage years you don’t hear anymore (5 Viewers)

Me and my wife were having a chat yesterday and towards the end she said “ blow out feel the breeze” to mean I was wrong .
Then I thought my particular pharse when someone was lying was chinny rekon I’ve not heard either of those for years

its probably for the best, considering it was said to you by a teenager

An ex-girlfriends mum once said to me (after I'd been cheeky to her) "You're shootin' for a bootin'" .I think she meant to say "You're cruising for a bruising"

Last time I heard that was in a Tim Minchin song about plastic bags.

Was recalling Rowan Atkinson's "Father of the bride" speech - must be downloadable somewhere! His description of Gerald is superb!

I still hear that quite regularly from a whingeing co-worker!

"you're a fucking mong " said by everyone about everyone at Whitley abbey school in the 1970s.
Please tell me that's now died out.......

This was the first one I thought of and I am glad it has died out. The N and the P words seem to have gone thankfully and the W seems to have also disappeared.

The word that seems to be used a lot amongst the youngsters is retard and every time they use it my heart sinks.

Never heard that one before maybe that was exclusive for you

Or maybe you're too old, and you missed out on original name calling

No I can remember that one really and was probably called it many times.

Joey Deacon, remember that growing up watching Blue Peter, was an awful thing that kids used them for each other.

 

[shmmeee]

Never knew where joey came from. Was always used to mean someone’s slave or that you’re doing things for others when I was a kid. Like “I ain’t getting that, I ain’t your Joey”

Instead of chinny we used to say Jimmy. As in JH. Or Benjamin. No idea about that
Gordon Bennett was another
