In New England we use that a lot but everyone else in the US doesn't seem to get it. Have any of you ever heard of it before? What do you think it means? Give me a sentence with it.

I grew up saying this, and still do.
It is used as a descripition of the intensity of the word you are using to describe, like wicked good food. Wicked cold shower, so I guess it means "really, really"

The same thing goes for the word gay, which up until 30 years ago meant 'happy'. What the hell happened??!

I've heard of it, I live in Illinois and we use it sometimes. Wicked to me means the same as "cool" or "awesome". For example..."Man, that roller coaster was totally wicked!"

Traditionally it's a synonym of 'evil'; colloquially it's a synonym of 'cool' or 'excellent'.
