I remember this one well from my younger days Floyd, but even though younger people today don’t much know about this phrase, they do seem to have adopted their own version. After all, I’ve heard so many teenagers nag parents to get them the latest iPhone simply because their friends at school already had one. Sadly the original phrase had just moved on to a newer meaning.
