Words going out of fashion

@Very-Rusty
One word I used to hear my daughter say when she was going to Berklee in Boston;
WICKED HARD or WICKED COOL.
I thought that one went out with horse whip but I just heard Lawrence O'donnell use that term ( 'Last Word' on MSNBC), of course he is something like 60 years old so it stands to reason it would still be in his vocabulary.

chop-chop (hurry up)
Have not heard this for yonks.
My dad used it all the time.

Actually I haven't heard "yonks" for yonks either.

Well that’s embarrassing I’ve been calling people
Flibberdigibbert’s for years. You might have mentioned this earlier.

Methinks "slubberdegullion" is an under-used and under-appreciated word of late. Certainly, there are enough of them about to deserve being so designated.

I still say have a nice day also enjoy the rest of your day depending the time of day I meet the person I have known for years.

Here's another I like, though it hardly rolls off the tongue...curmudgeon.

And you say all that without punctuation.
