I’m a circled guy to an ex paper shaker when this bird dog tried to bash her ears at this fat city place, not supermurgitroid!

I'd been trying to dredge together outmoded expressions to awkwardly slip into discussions for a while & never could work out a good way to come up with them. How do you generate those?

I just googled 50s slang.

I've always used "heavens to murgitroid" which I think is something the old granny in Tom and Jerry cartoons used to say.
