They are approximately 50 years apart. Phrases used to take 10 to 20 years to change. Now it's 6 months to a year. "It's totally rad to not be hep to jive gabbing if'n that's negative to y'alls lookout. " @cainmark also, you're right, the copy of IM I have was printed more recently. I mistook that date as the copyright. That explains so much, and I'm glad I brought it up so it could be clarified. @hannah also, i found out that nanni’s complaint wasn't an isolated incident when looking up this pic, and i had to share that |
@bugsong @hannah I found The Invisible Man hard to read, which tells you just how quickly phrases change. (On the contrary, I Am Legend was a breeze despite it being written around the same time.)
