A "burn" in the '70s was about the same as a "diss" today, except that today, we don't point them out. To shout, "Burn!" at someone would mean that either you or someone else got that person good, either by fooling them, humiliating them, or making them the butt of a joke. This was exemplified on That 70s Show, when Eric's grandmother dropped a passve-aggressive bomb on Eric's friend, causing Eric to say, "That, my friend, is the seldom-heard, but much-feared 'Grandma burn'."
