  • Hello, a to Z english listeners.

  • Welcome to another podcast.

  • Today we're going to be doing a fun episode called Gen X Slang.

  • Jack teaches me about some Gen X slang, and I try to guess the meanings.

  • Jack, you want to kick us off?

  • Yes, I would like to.

  • So I have three expressions or three words that were very common about, I don't know, 30 or 40 years ago.

  • This is, I'm a generation x person, and so the first one that I want to share with you is the expression go postal.

  • What does it mean to go postal?

  • No idea.

  • Oh, my gosh.

  • I'm like, okay, I have, like, three, which isn't fair, but the first thing.

  • First three that go to mind are, like, one, go crazy to, like, go on a trip or, like, go global or something.

  • Or three, go postal, I thought would mean, like, go, like, how we use ghosting now.

  • Oh, ghosting.

  • Like ignoring somebody completely to go disappearing, to disappear.

  • Okay.

  • Okay.

  • What?

  • You're close on one of them, so it is a verb, right?
