How did you do? 😊 I’d love to hear your score, and which 1950s phrase brought back the most memories. Did you actually say any of these growing up?

I'm 93 years old and a lot of those sayings were probably in the early forties when I was in the kindergarten

I was born right in the middle, 1955. Got 46/50. At least half of these slang phrases are still commonly used today, and with the same meaning.

As a child born in the very early 50's I was able to get 100%. Yes, some of those bring back memories and others I still use today.

46. There were some I'd never heard, even though I lived all the way through the '50s.

I missed three, & I'm 83. The missed ones I had never heard of. A paper shaker? And an ankle biter is a dog. A cookie cruncher is a child.
