Quick Question

When did "gnarly" become a term of approbation? This morning, on the radio, the DJ was speaking rapturously (if mercenarily) about Subway's new breakfast sandwiches, when he mentioned that they were "full of gnarly bacon." Did we miss a memo?

    Why yes, yes you did. Everyone else got it so I'm not sure why you didn't. It seems a little suspicious don't you think?

    Gnarly was always a term of appobation among Le dudes de Surf. More importantly, when did this become 1963?
