Are You Hip Enough To Understand The Slang From the 70s? '-' Quizscape

I got a 30 out of 40. Some of the expressions were obviously unfamiliar to me. How about you?

Nammu, can you give us the toy "address"? That sounds interesting, too.
Thanks for this!

I just clicked the site you had up. It went to the end of the quiz with no way to start it. So I went to menu in the upper left and pick pop category and from the list of quizzes choose the 50’s toys. Hope that’s helpful.

Groovy Dude! You clearly remember the popular slang of the time. Ha ha, a lot was guess work. I only got 34 out of 40. Never heard some of it but then I was a Midwestern goody two shoes for the most part. I did have long hair big hats, ponchos and bell bottom hip hungers. Mood rings and moccasins. I despised jocks.

27 out of 40, thought I'd score higher being as I was really hip! The person who wrote the quiz must have been a millennial.
Thanks for this!

LOL Probably so. Whoever it was didn't likely live during the 1970's.
