OP I was just thinking about all the hip coinage of the 60's...like "Let's roll!" that was mentioned. Also, "Later!", for instance, trimmed down from "I'll see you later on" to "later on" then simply "Later!" We could also include the more cliché catch-words and phrases like groovy, far out, out of sight, bummer, not my bag, rip-off, sock it to me...but that's enough from me for now. Remember... the 60's...not the '50's or '70's. How many can we get from all sides of the pond? Or does anybody care?
