	10:34pm Sam Segal: ↳ zzz @10:32 The lineup at that Public Records event is great. Chicago Underground Duo, Soft Pink Truth.
	10:34pm Dean: OED on one of the apt entries for "silly": Of words, actions, ideas, etc.: characterized by or associated with foolishness. Of a thing: causing amusement or derision; having a comical appearance. The etymology is nuts. "seely": "Happy, blissful; fortunate, lucky, well-omened, auspicious."

	10:39pm Sam Segal: Heavy
	♥ 10:40pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Sam Segal @10:39 someone used that today to me
	♥ 10:40pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DL in LA @10:37 that one gets used frequently where i live. i think about 1/3 ironically, 2/3 sincerely. i always liked that word. it's groovy!
	10:41pm Jon: Wow, I texted someone “sounds groovy” yesterday and I haven’t thought of that word in a long time. And here it is once again, on the chat 😎
	♥ 10:41pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Segal @10:38 i use most of the old gems... far out, rad, solid, heavy, hip, righteous...
	♥ 10:42pm Bobby: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:35 Hahaha got me! I was already thinking about Bugs Bunny and was not ready for this
	10:42pm DL in LA: ↳ Sam Segal @10:38 "Far out" works better as "far out man!" but this brings up problematical gender issues. Maybe that's why it feels wrong.
	♥ 10:43pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Bobby @10:42 haha!
	♥ 10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: @sam... i know my poetry did not go over well on this chat but perhaps its gotten better. if you feel like it take a look www.instagram.com...
	10:44pm Sam Segal: ↳ Jon @10:41 Groovy is in the air. It’s on the tip of everyone’s tongue.

	♥ 10:45pm coelacanth∅: so many words, so little time
	10:45pm Sam Segal: I like “bad” meaning “good”
	10:45pm Sam Segal: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:43 I encourage any and all sharing of your poetry, Tom Tom.
	♥ 10:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Sam Segal @10:45 thx, see what you think
	♥ 10:47pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Segal @10:45 i never use that! i think Michael Jackson ruined it for me! but i do say "it's the bomb" and "....is the shit" - picked up from a woman i once dated
	10:47pm Dean: Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
	♥ 10:47pm tom tom the pipers son: there's bum too as in 'bum' steer
	♥ 10:48pm Bobby: ↳ Song: "You've Got Me Beat" by "Swamp Children" this is what i wanted

	♥ 10:57pm tom tom the pipers son: superb haqs made a bit of a comeback
	♥ 10:57pm zzz: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 lol. here’s another for Sam: “dank”
	♥ 10:58pm coelacanth∅: ↳ zzz @10:55 nice! i've never used that word! i should, as it goes well with "bamboozle" and "shenanigans" - 2 of my favorite words
	10:58pm Dean: I am encouraged by WFMU's gradual openness to classical recordings. Fair representation would require a fifth stream, I fear.
	♥ 10:58pm zzz: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:58 yesss to shenanigans. a fav as well
	♥ 10:59pm zzz: i’ve been working “bonkers” into my usage lately
	♥ 10:59pm tom tom the pipers son: i had a friend whos fav was exclaiming shenanigans!
	10:59pm Sam Segal: ↳ zzz @10:57 Oh now if we’re getting into “dank,” one could also drop a word like “chronic.”
	♥ 11:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Segal @10:59 yeah "chronic" is pretty dope
	♥ 11:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @10:58 prob entail 2nd yearly marathon
	♥ 11:02pm coelacanth∅: ...but i still like to refer back to Lincoln Hays... yeah that's solid man.
	♥ 11:04pm coelacanth∅: (Hayes)
	11:21pm DL in LA: I'm psyched (!) that "groovy" is bubbling up.
	11:22pm Dean: I have never stopped uttering "Howdy!"
	♥ 11:26pm tom tom the pipers son: how about "plastic!" used in a similar way to groovy
	♥ 11:26pm Ike: Darn tootin'!
	♥ 11:27pm coelacanth∅: experiencing weird stream problems
	♥ 11:28pm coelacanth∅: ...seems steady now
	11:29pm Sam Segal: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:28 Oh dear…hope it holds out okay. Thanks for the heads up.
	♥ 11:31pm tom tom the pipers son: heads up came about like 20 yrs ago in its present form right
	11:31pm Sam Segal: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:31 Heads up is big for me. I probably drop one or two heads ups a day.
	11:32pm headcleaner: Evening, peoples. Back when there was this thing known as snow ...
	11:33pm DL in LA: ↳ Sam Segal @11:29 I heard stream dropouts too. Even some sound scrambling, like CD errors but when Sam was talking. Kinda wild.
	11:33pm Sam Segal: ↳ DL in LA @11:33 I wish that was a glitch effect I could control and harness.
	♥ 11:34pm coelacanth∅: so many of these phrases that kids think are new, are "theirs", go back generations ... >100 years in some cases, as evidenced in old literature. pretty funny.
	♥ 11:34pm tom tom the pipers son: i think sometime it transliterated from being a literal term of industrial labor to a post industrial coloquial usage figuratively
	♥ 11:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:34 heads up
	♥ 11:35pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DL in LA @11:33 right, that describes what i heard. but only 1 brief hiccup after i posted it seems better. (at this end)
	♥ 11:40pm coelacanth∅: and then many phrases, especially now in our culture of media-controlled zombies, are simply phrases put into movies, tv shows and videos specifically for their catchiness
	11:43pm DL in LA: I’ve been watching a lot of movies from the 30s and 40s on YouTube. You start to realize phrases that must have been common, like: “Hey, what’s the big idea?!!”
	♥ 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DL in LA @11:43 bowery boys...? ;)
	11:47pm DL in LA: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:40 I had not even read your comment yet. Funny that we both moved to phrases at the same time.
	11:51pm Dean: This "Brave Sailor"(?) is exquisite.
	♥ 11:52pm tom tom the pipers son: thx zam
	11:53pm Sam Segal: ↳ Dean @11:51 Brave Sailor, yes.
	11:53pm Sam Segal: Ta ta, Tom Tom!
	11:56pm Dean: I live blocks from an early music instrument store, Lark In the Morning. But nothing beats the folk music store in Claremont, CA.
	♥ 11:57pm zzz: thanks much Sam good night all ✌️
	♥ 11:58pm WR: Hi Sam and folks, have been listening while working. Many thanks Sam!
	11:58pm still b/p: Great scene in Balls Of Fire, 1941: Gary Cooper, researching for English language part of encyclopedia, sits down with regular folks to get a handle on the slang and regular-folks figures of speech.
	♥ 12:00am coelacanth∅: Thanks Sam! tchau, hepcats
	12:01am DL in LA: ↳ still b/p @11:58 I watched that recently! Great.
	12:01am DL in LA: Thanks Sam!

	♥ 10:57pm tom tom the pipers son: superb haqs made a bit of a comeback
	♥ 10:57pm zzz: ↳ Sam Segal @10:56 lol. here’s another for Sam: “dank”
	♥ 10:58pm coelacanth∅: ↳ zzz @10:55 nice! i've never used that word! i should, as it goes well with "bamboozle" and "shenanigans" - 2 of my favorite words
	10:58pm Dean: I am encouraged by WFMU's gradual openness to classical recordings. Fair representation would require a fifth stream, I fear.
	♥ 10:58pm zzz: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:58 yesss to shenanigans. a fav as well
	♥ 10:59pm zzz: i’ve been working “bonkers” into my usage lately
	♥ 10:59pm tom tom the pipers son: i had a friend whos fav was exclaiming shenanigans!
	10:59pm Sam Segal: ↳ zzz @10:57 Oh now if we’re getting into “dank,” one could also drop a word like “chronic.”
	♥ 11:00pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Sam Segal @10:59 yeah "chronic" is pretty dope

	11:21pm DL in LA: I'm psyched (!) that "groovy" is bubbling up.

	♥ 11:26pm tom tom the pipers son: how about "plastic!" used in a similar way to groovy
	♥ 11:26pm Ike: Darn tootin'!
	♥ 11:27pm coelacanth∅: experiencing weird stream problems
	♥ 11:28pm coelacanth∅: ...seems steady now
	11:29pm Sam Segal: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:28 Oh dear…hope it holds out okay. Thanks for the heads up.
	♥ 11:31pm tom tom the pipers son: heads up came about like 20 yrs ago in its present form right
	11:31pm Sam Segal: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:31 Heads up is big for me. I probably drop one or two heads ups a day.
	11:32pm headcleaner: Evening, peoples. Back when there was this thing known as snow ...
	11:33pm DL in LA: ↳ Sam Segal @11:29 I heard stream dropouts too. Even some sound scrambling, like CD errors but when Sam was talking. Kinda wild.
	11:33pm Sam Segal: ↳ DL in LA @11:33 I wish that was a glitch effect I could control and harness.
	♥ 11:34pm coelacanth∅: so many of these phrases that kids think are new, are "theirs", go back generations ... >100 years in some cases, as evidenced in old literature. pretty funny.
	♥ 11:34pm tom tom the pipers son: i think sometime it transliterated from being a literal term of industrial labor to a post industrial coloquial usage figuratively
	♥ 11:35pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:34 heads up
	♥ 11:35pm coelacanth∅: ↳ DL in LA @11:33 right, that describes what i heard. but only 1 brief hiccup after i posted it seems better. (at this end)
	♥ 11:40pm coelacanth∅: and then many phrases, especially now in our culture of media-controlled zombies, are simply phrases put into movies, tv shows and videos specifically for their catchiness
	11:43pm DL in LA: I’ve been watching a lot of movies from the 30s and 40s on YouTube. You start to realize phrases that must have been common, like: “Hey, what’s the big idea?!!”
	♥ 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ DL in LA @11:43 bowery boys...? ;)
	11:47pm DL in LA: ↳ coelacanth∅ @11:40 I had not even read your comment yet. Funny that we both moved to phrases at the same time.
