    It’s like calling your remote a “clicker”. A term that is still used but only by the old crowd.

      Both “clicker” and “slide deck” made a resurgence, these are definitely not exclusively old terms.

        Their origin is old is the point. They refer back to an old technology and no longer applies since todays remotes don’t click. I think a “resurgence” is going a bit far.

        Everything is cyclical. My mum took the piss out of my baggy jeans in the early 00s cos they looked like 70s bell bottoms.

        Skinny jeans replaced them but hey ho - baggy jeans are coming back again!
