Every decade seems the have it’s own slang. The eighties had the best ones and even today I find myself talking like I‘m in the eighties. It’s crazy hehe.
 
I never used any of those stupid slangs. Who goes around responding with tubular?

Im almost positive that you used at least one slang word during the 80s. If you grew up in the U.S. during the 80s you did use slang. I’d bet my life on it.
