        I suppose you would, much like how x/millennials still use “bud”, “dude”, “awesome”, or " far out" in their daily jargon even though their parents or grandparents were the ones that coined the term.

        once a term or phrase enters the zeitgeist, it’s typically adopted by younger generations.
