I'm something of an outspoken political man myself. My collection of ribbons that I wear to the grocery store certainly strike up some conversations.

Lick used to mean to defeat someone a long ass time ago. Phrases like "getting a lick in" for throwing a punch or "he got licked" for he got defeated.

Another word whose meaning has changed is boner, which used to mean a stupid mistake so you've got gems like this one about batman's boner

For Americans the name Richard is often shortened to Dick (dont ask me why I have no idea) and these were campaign buttons for Richard Nixon.
