I think it's still somewhat cool, but I might be dated. Tobin S. May 2012 #2

I have older teenagers, and I do hear that expression used occasionally in their crowd, so I guess it's still somewhat cool.

FWIW, I uses it and I'm somewhat cool.

She's playing in a soccer tournamnet out of state, and we were just texting back and forth about the game today. Replying to my question about any good plays she may have made, she said: "yeah, I made some kick ass saves".

So there you go Quantess, the kids are still saying it.
