I'm just glad the zoomers haven't discovered Jive.

Imagining the TikTok voice opening with "Dig what I'm putting down, how I went from a dead pigeon bucket from Nantucket to a lothario from Ontario"

My favorite jive slang is biscuit is a gun.

Heard it used non ironically for the first time in "Cotton comes to Haarlem"
