What is a 50's slang word that is equivalent to groovy?

The 50's word that would fit "groovy" as in "cool" or "awesome" today would be probably "boss" or a cool place would be "fat city" That shirt is boss cuz. Your house is Fat City, i love the 400 car garage. That's probably more of an early 60s term. A more 50ish term might be "keen" or "neato."

What are common slang words of the 30's?

As ever, slang dictionaries--incomplete though they are--are an easy commodity to find, for free, on the internet. I'm gonna give you some words and then I'm gonna give you a link to fill out your program, as it were, as it is, a little better: Both these words and this resource, I think, are pretty good. It's always hard to tell with period stuff, however--the online slang resources covering eras I remember at all [late 60s, 70s, 80s and forward] always are finely riddled with error. The older ones, though, seem to be worked by people who are more circumspect. Anyway, here are some terms I remember from reading: • butter and egg man=money man • blinkers, lamps, shutters, peepers=eyes • blow your wig=get all excited • frail, doll, twist, muffin, kitten=chick, broad, dame, woman • buzzer=police badge • cinder dick=railroad cop • murder!=yow! I hope it helps. Here's the link--like I said, it's pretty good. Such a wilder language then than now. Then again, no cable, had to make one's own good time: http://www.paper-dragon.com/1939/slang.html
