OC What are some disused words I can call my teenagers?
I've been calling them ne'er-do-wells lately, or sometimes layabouts.

Nothing a teenager loves more than learning something along the way
MrJameGumb, Malcontents
jared, This one is going on the list.
MadBabs, Scallywags
curiousaur, Lollygag.
eliza, An odd one, but my physics teacher would address us as ‘mollusc’ :D
j4yc33, Rake is a good one.
HisBane, Gadabouts
palordrolap, Not so much disused but rarely used these days:
Nincompoop. (Fun fact: it's a mangling of Latin "non compos mentis" = "not of sound mind")
Gibbering wretch.
Navel starer.
Halfwit.
Dunce
Actually rare / disused:
- Flibbertygibbet. Means "airhead" which itself is a kind of weird word, but is better known. Both usually applied to girls and young women, but can also be used for males, etc.
The_Eraserhead_Baby, Groms.
rustyriffs, Crotchgoblins
