I still say "groovy", "hella", and "dank".

The only time I still mention Groovy is when I directly afterwards mention that I like Kotlin better.

Funk and funky are still in my vocabulary.

“groovy” was already only used ironically back in the day, having much the same connotations as referring to Nirvana as a “beat combo”

As someone who grew up in the 60s and 70s, i can assure you that groovy was not used ironically back in the day. Ya dig?

I am the only person I know who uses groovy unironically other than my aunt.
