Some words are really used throughout, definitely not limited to any particular origin or age.
Every french person will understand expressions like "Ch'uis vénère" (I'm furious, from "énervé"), "Fumer de la beuh" (Smoking pot, from "herbe"). "Les keufs" (The cops, from "flics").
Consider the classic movie "Les Ripoux" (1984). "Ripou" Meaning corrupt cops, coming from "pourri" rotten.
