That’s the thing about Slanguage it is constantly changing the meanings of words and inventing new words. Read the King James Bible and the works of Shakespeare to get an idea of how much English has changed since those stabilizing works were written.

Looks like I have a new word in my vocabulary. Just as the wife finally convinced me to stop saying “far out”.
