Short for "radical," it's a word that needs to come back. Often used in conjunction with dude.
Dude, I can't believe that you memorized the periodic table. That's a totally rad waste of time.

an outdated slang term meaning "good". possibly still current on the west coast, land of scariness.
if you've used the term rad since since 1990 in any way but to make fun of it, you are a sad individual

what adults THINK kids say (adults try to use it to make them look cool) but that term went out in the 90s and it is a cool example of how outdated adults are
Adult Fukock: You is rad.
Me: Fuck off wrinkle-dicked tard.
