What are some old movie lines that sound horribly dated when watching the movie in 2019?

Uh virtually every old James Bond movie take your pick between calling them broads or just plain slapping the shit out of them the entire movie

I just watched The Breakfast Club again, and there's a scene where Principal Vernon has Bender in a chair and he's chewing him out, and he drops the "I'm a big deal in this town, I make 31 thousand dollars a year."
That's 15 bucks an hour. A burger flipper in Seattle makes that in 2019, but in 1985 it was apparently a lot of money.
The fuck? 31k is pretty fucking good even in 2019. Burger flippers really make that much and still complain?
In what universe is $31K "pretty fucking good"? That's minimum wage in Seattle, and it's not enough money to support oneself on with what rent goes for here (there are literally homeless people who make that.)
According to a very quick Google search, I got "school principal sal" in and it shot back $90,410 before I could type "ary". That's presumably the national average in 2018 or whenever the data's from.
Jesus, minimum wage in the UK is just over £15k Or just over $19k and Yall really complaining? I'd fucking kill to earn $31k a year. Is life really that more expensive over there?
In Seattle (and London, from what I hear) you bet yer arse.
