Re: Do people still say.......
Greetings,
I prefer the words folks, blokes, girls, women and with a full blown passion I detest "guys", especially when females are in the group
I love the north east expression "there's a rabbit off" when something is wrong.

Don’t head darn sarf Hugh. Even in our mid 60’s my wife and I are ‘guys’.....or maybe we just go to the wrong places.
It does make us feel a bit less old though and seems better when our 30 something neighbour calls us that.

Re: Do people still say.......
Back in the early 70's I'd only ever heard Richard Pryor use the term WTF, and it was meant literally as a question. (As in maybe - What the F*** are you going to do about it ? or WTF does that mean )
Now more often than not, for the younger generation it just seems to mean "I don't understand " or "I have absolutely no comprehention of anything 'cause I ain't learnt sh*t about nothing yet."

Watching the snooker yesterday and as Ronnie O'Sullivan knocked in a long red the commentator said "well shiver me timbers".
To use a term noted earlier, WTF?

"I'll go to the foot of our stairs"...an expression indicating surprise that I only ever heard in Leicestershire.
another Leicester-ism
"Well, that's pissed on your chips" indicating one's total defeat in an argument, or another irrecoverable failure.
