Yes, in high school.  We were demonstrating and burning the dress code which hadn't been updated since 1947.   Boys were getting expelled when their hair went over the top of their ears. Things have sure changed.  Now the school are excited if the chicks boobs aren't hanging out and the boys pants are somewhere near the waistline.  And what is this with all the fat chicks and hip-hugger pants.  That is gross!

Tool has long been a crude term for the male appendage.\n\nVarious crude terms for the male appendage have been used as derogatory names for people.  \n\nIt was inevitable that tool would eventually become a derogatory term.  As to when it did, that's anyone's guess, although I noticed it becoming more prevalent in the '90s

"Who chose cake?"\n\nIt's exact etymology is unclear but this much is certain: the British coined the phrase. \n\n"The first documented appearance of the term is in 1943, in an small book of British military slang, although sources claim it was used in the RAF throughout World War Two, and was originally a Yorkshire dialect term in use at least since 1914."

A hobo is a member of a distinctive sub-culture of homeless, travelling workers in the United States. Hobo culture was most popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and is particularly associated with the railroads, as hobos have the reputation for freighthopping—hitching free rides from place to place in the baggage cars of trains.

A bit o' cut and paste:\n\nn the early days of professional fist fighting, groups of fighters would travel from town to town challenging the local men. The fighters would arrange a few of the spectators in a circle and have them hold a ring of rope. Any man wishing to challenge one of the boxers would "toss his hat into the ring." The bout would then take place in this early boxing "ring."\n\nAs the number of spectators increased, the hand-held ring no longer sufficed, and it became necessary to fashion an enclosure by attaching ropes to stakes driven into the ground. Four stakes were normally used, which produced a square enclosure, but it continued to be called a boxing ring.

The idea of wearing a bra got started in the early 1900s.  The idea of wearing a corset was going out of fashion quickly, for obvious reasons.  Around the time that the flapper style came about, women decided they needed to do something to make the dresses look a little better, ie softer or flatter, so the first "bra" was a piece of elastic and some hankerchiefs and safety pins.  The idea took off and now everyone has one.  Today it is seen as a way to give support to keep the breasts from stretching and sagging.

Inner city rough and poor neighborhoods were referred to as the "Ghetto".    Used alot in the 60's and 70's really.   I think today we have extended the word to mean things that are distasteful.....I noticed young people using it that way.....I see even on this site referring to this and that as ghetto.\nSo there you go....the meaning has changed over the generations.

By far the most shocking one that I'd discovered was "feisty," which literally means "like a farting dog."  It comes from an abbreviation of the phrase "fisting hound" or "fisting dog," and "fist" was in this case a reference to breaking wind.  (Though "fist" was used in the phrase as a general pejorative, like if you tripped over the "fucking chair.")

Blue Blood to Blue book to Bluenose?  The etymology of the word Bluenose and the phrase Blue Laws seems to have lost.  The only thing known for sure is that the first use of the term Blue Law that can be documented today is in General History of Connecticut by the Reverend Samuel Peters published in 1781.  It is now assumed that Rev. Peters coined the phrase.
