OT: OT - Outdated Words That Were Once Popular

-Making a mountain out of a mole hill
-Good til the last drop
-Theres always room for Jello
-The rich keep getting richer
-Broad- (An indecent reference to a woman)
 
Ersatz. Ironic but a German word that crept into our vocabulary long ago. Often taken to mean fake, but truth lies closer to "a poor substitute for". For example, chicory subbing for coffee.
 
How about "goofed" as in the Everly Brothers' "Wake up Little Susie" where the lyrics include "looks like we goofed again"!
