I haven't heard "the cat's pajamas" in a few months. "23 skidoo" also seems to be dying down.

I'm eagerly awaiting the death of "I know, right?". Its gotta have less than two years.

On the other hand, my thirtysomething self will cling, in the most awful sophomoric juvenile way, to thinking "that's what she said" internally for the duration of my adult life. The only ones that count anymore are the ones that make ya think a beat, then groan loudly as I giggle like an eighteen year old.

I think you mean beaucoup, which is French for "a lot."

'change we can believe in'

I thought for sure team Obama would try to flailingly recapture the incomparable buzz of 08. They did very well not to and proved at least a little in touch.

Me and my girlfriend use these both constantly, so you would vacillate between loving and hating us every five minutes.
