I think an even older generation would ut their slang in the strong soyjack section and would put yours in the stupid soyjack section.

I still say "groovy", "hella", and "dank".
The only time I still mention Groovy is when I directly afterwards mention that I like Kotlin better.

“groovy” was already only used ironically back in the day, having much the same connotations as referring to Nirvana as a “beat combo”
As someone who grew up in the 60s and 70s, i can assure you that groovy was not used ironically back in the day. Ya dig?
I am the only person I know who uses groovy unironically other than my aunt.
