old peole are funny. I was talking to somebody today about words old people use. It's funny when old people try to use the new slang kids use today, but I think it's even funnier when they use their old slang. I was talking to a friend of mine (shoutout to Jenny Clark) today and her dad still says "the sauce" when referring to alcohol. "You been messin' with the sauce hadn'tya?" What in the hell is "the sauce"? It's not like the term silly sauce (referring to alcohol), which is definately self explanatory. I mean, is it hot sauce, worchesteshire sauce or bbq sauce? I'm guessing "the sauce" is just a shortening of "silly sauce". Wherever the term came from, I think somebody was on "the sauce" when they came up with the term "the sauce".
Another funny term old people use is "dope". I'm not talking about dope as in fly. I'm talking about "dope". Like marijana, weed, pot, cheeba, skunk, green, sticky-icky-icky, hydro, the oooooweeee, killa, hash, "the stuff", green-green, purple, the magic dragon, good-good, wacky tabacky, Presidential, green sticky, purp, that fire, sprinkle, Barney, herb, sticks, stems, Bill Clinton. But with old people it also refers to other drugs, such as cocaine, heroine and pretty much any other illegal substance you can think of. If anybody older than 40 or 45 asks if you've been "messin' with dope" you must first clarify what it is they're talking about. You don't want to get in trouble for drugs you're not actually doing. That makes it even funnier when they say "the dope". As if it only refers to one particular drug. They don't know that we know they're talking about a number of things when they say "the dope". I think that all the old people should put their heads together and decide what exactly it is they think "the dope" is.
