    To be fair, we also heard them from the ninja turtles, and any other kids media and/or commercials trying to appeal to the demographic. Some of us used it sarcastically on the playground, but I don’t think any of us knew anyone who used it seriously. I think it might have been surfer slang that was co-opted by marketing departments?
