We definitely had ridiculous slang in the 80s and 90s, but the truth is I always felt like the media over-played it trying to sound cool. And when we’d over-play it amongst ourselves it was as a way to laugh at adults.
Can you jam with the console cowboys in cyberspace? Cowabunga. Some of my favorite stuff had excessive references to skateboarding, roller blading, or other Xtreme sports (Hackers, anyone?) and that’s coming from a guy who used to be a part of that scene.
Maybe I’m wrong. If I am that wouldn’t be fetch.
Edit: my drunk ass doesn’t know the difference between all of the 80s and 89.
It’s apple plus. I have no idea how any of their stuff is because it’s the only service I haven’t tried. But I’ve heard good things about their sci fi offerings.

Dude, it was radically tubular.
It was phat. Raise the roof. You’re bodacious.
Otherwise, gag me with a spoon because I’m grody.
Yes, but are you bout it bout it and rowdy rowdy? Are you all that AND a bag of chips? Or are a salty scrub?
Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not going to happen!
I mean, cyberspace is at least a genuine term made by Gibson. The rest…
But you’re not jamming with the console cowboys there, as much as I wish that happened. I guess I should have hacked the Gibson harder.
On an entirely related note, theoretically there will be a Neuromancer TV show next year.
Huh really? That’s exciting! I hope they don’t mess it up. It seems long overdue with all these book/video game adaptations that have been coming out.

Oh, that is somewhat promising. They’ve done great with Severance, which I’ve seen, and apparently also Silo (which I haven’t).
Silo is great. One of my favorite current series.
