Keanu, good to see you on here! Thank your dad for letting you edu-ma-cate us. ;)
I'm not around kids, teens or anywhere I could learn about these unless they're used in a song on the radio, but I don't listen to the radio much, so I'm frequently "pedestrian" when it comes to the latest slang. It's fun to read these!
hmm ruby Murray was an Irish singer a loooong ways back, so would "having a Ruby Murray" be something about remembering something pleasant from long ago?

Typical exclamation by my daughter:
"Omigod, ONE-ONE!!"
(developed from many not pressing the "caps" key on the internet)
"Random" people.
(I've heard a couple kids using this)
And yeah, "That wins!"

I miss this stuff! Since my first born is all grown up, I don't get to hear em all.
My 10 year old is starting to pick up the stuff and I can't wait to have all that around again.

Noted in last conversation with own 20-somethings:
"tight".....that's good
"off the hook".....that's good too.
"hook you up".....take care of you, get you something, connected to something, something to something
Keanu -howdy! (old guy talk for hello)
When my son is talking to his friends, it's a "dude" fest.
"Whoa, dude......dude!......yeah, dude......that's tight dude!......duuuuuude...!...."

Time for me to "walk the dog" and I wish I meant it in the way we did in college, but I'm literally going to "walk the dog".
In college it meant "get stoned" B)
