1. Mean
   Silly
2. Wrong
   Cool

That's pretty boss, man. That's a phrase you might have heard in the '60s from all the coolest cats. While today it may take on a bit of a different meaning, for boomers, it will always be a synonym for cool.

1. A hippie
   A child who is above their grade level
2. A person who cares for animals
   Someone who loves the outdoors

One thing for which the baby-boomer generation is known is its hippie ways. When someone says "hippie," the thing that most often comes to mind is the infamous Woodstock Music Festival.

1. Thistle
   Maniac
2. Cat
   Fuzz

For baby boomers, a "cat" is more than just your average household pet and can refer to a person you're talking about. For example, one way you could use it is like this: "The cat down the road sure knows how to dance."

1. What a fry
   They're maxed out.
2. They're the cat's pajamas.
   They're really something.

Everyone has encountered some awesome people in their lifetime. Some of them are a little more enthusiastic than others and that's why baby boomers used a special term for those people. Anyone who was deemed enthusiastic or outlandish was known as a "fry."

1. Fuzz
   500

   In a square

2. Shades
   Far out

1. Making money
   Cooking
2. Making the bed
   Learning with friends

   Everything is smooth.
2. You're going through a rough patch.

   Scratch
2. Stoked

   Blitzed
2. Cruisin' for a bruisin'

   Call a cab.
2. Get away quickly.

   Nice
2. Going on vacation

   Give them a massage.

   Make out
2. Mop-top
   What's your bag, man?

   They're mad.
2. They're excited.
