    Totally.  They used to say that in CA in the 1970s, usually with a "dude" after it.

  • When I was in high school in California in the late 2000s, we all said "totes" and its companion word "magotes". This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at June 15, 2018 9:11 PM MDT

    When I was a teen, the most often used phrase was "or something like that".

    I think "totally" is totally cool!

    I took a public speaking class and the first thing the teacher told us was "STOP SAYING OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT!"
