LARP, queer studies, and mixed martial arts? That's a party I'd like to go to
I've got "G-spot", "misoprostol", "microbrewery", and "WYSIWYG".

Knitter, sewist, Seattle Soccer Fan, occasional tech stuff, whatever else tickles my fancy. Cilantro is fine, but pickles are a waste of a perfectly good cucumber.

YO. im aromantic, and the word was first used in my birth year! god damn...
Air Guitar, BIOS, Bitmap, dunk on, differently abled, graphics tablet (that long ago??? I thought that didn't exist until this century!!!), gridlock (really??? That's not older?), baby bump, chill out
A lot of terms that seem like they've been in use forever were born in 1980! And a lot of terms I thought were a lot younger, too! Air guitar, BIOS, Bitmap, and chill out are literally the only ones I listed here that don't surprise me. (A bunch of medical terms, too. Check out 1980, there're several pages of new words in it.)
Computer mouse and tablets were invented pretty close to each other if i remember correctly.
Of course it wasn't correct. I kinda filed tablets and light pens in the same brain drawer.

attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
gender nonconforming
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor
wake and bake
