Colloquial term meaning "See you in later days" a looser derivative of the term "See you later" and implies a possible longer time before meeting again. This term was made famous following the suicide of 16yo Jeremy Wade Delle in 1991, after passing a note to a fellow classmate he signed the note "Later days" rather than his usual "Write back". This suicide was the basis for the song Jeremy by Pearl Jam. "I'm moving to Chicago tomorrow, so I guess I'll see you when I see you?"
"Yeah, later days" |

A term used in Southern California back in the early 1970's and probably used in the late 1960's up in Frisco. "Later days" was a term used like "dude." Depending on the inflection in your voice, it could mean several things. It could mean everything from "i"ll see you tomorrow," to "if I ever see you again, I will kill you." In SoCal, the term eventually shortened down to "later on." This became a generic term for, "see you later." It lost most of its inflection power at this point. Probably a year later or so, (the time it takes for slang to morph) the term shortened down to "later." It lost all inflection and became a simple goodbye. later days man!" (in a vibrant voice) = "have fun at the Pink Floyd concert.
