I've noticed the language being changed by each generation too. I had to explain to my parents what I meant when I said, "cool" instead of "groovy", etc.
I was talking to an older member of my family not so long ago and I said something about being "pissed off". She looked at me like I had just been doomed to hell for repeating the word.
My family has always been highly "religious".
I forget sometimes that "pissed" hasn't been added to everyone's vocabulary as meaning, "I'm angry".
I'm not the best with articulating my thoughts; I just speak, and write with simplicity. Why do we need so many words that all mean the same thing anyhow?
