So I ran across (not literally, I literally clicked across it) a website with a list of 80's slang, and I really think there are some phrases in there that need to be brough back. For example...
Bodacious - An 80's guy's way to describe a woman who had a beautiful body. She is bodacious with gnarly ta-tas. See also gnarly & ta-tas for descriptions.
Eurotrash - Europeans who were rich that frequented the club scene in the early to mid 80's.
Gnarly - Very good. Not commonly used today. She is gnarly!
Homeboy - Used in the early 80's to describe someone who is a gang banger. Later used to describe a black male - which was okay for blacks to use this word. And even later was accepted to be used by all do describe a black guy.
O-rama - Suffix you affix to a word to describe the whole spectrum of the meaning. "He is a Dweeb-o-rama". Meaning, you are describing someone that is every sense of that word.
Rad/Radical - If something is rad, it's not only attractive, it's attractive immensely.
Tubular - Something that is cool. Something overwhelming. "Tubular, totally tubular."

If you have any other suggestions, just comment on them, and that would be like, totally rad!!
