I was watching an old Youtube video the other day and heard a baseball umpire use the term "We're in the jackpot here". I remembered hearing the phrase before but didn't know what it meant until I looked it up.
One phrase that I have not heard in the last 15 years or so is something needing "a woman's touch"; meaning needing the input of feminine style or taste. Most likely due to the blatant sexism that it implies in this day and age.
Also, I don't hear "People will talk" or "Let 'em talk" referring...
That is EXACTLY what I meant; people using "legalese" without really understanding the words that they are throwing around.
Archie Bunker is a prime example.
