    Im in Subway and "November Rain" comes on the overhead speakers....I say, "an all time classic video", under my breath.....the girl behind the counter hears me and says, "What is?"....I say, "November Rain, the song on now"....she says, "They made videos back then?"....oh lord, Im old....anyone that was around to watch MTV in the '80s(when they played music), knows that "November Rain" was an epic 9 minute video that they overplayed to the point of saturation....I asked what year she was born, she says, "1991"....I said, "check and mate"....</p>

    You know you are getting old when you go to a concert and you complain about all the young people...</p>

    I went to the metal festival 'Download' and found myself complaining about all the young 'emo' kids and the fact they listen to shitty music. I even busted out 'back in the day'. Old at 23... what a grumpy old asshole...</p>

    Holla if you watched the first Real World!</p>

    I guess I was more of a 90's MTV watcher. During the 80's I grew up on a dirt road and only got three tv stations, sadly no MTV.</p>

    The younger sister of my co-worker was in the other day constantly saying "What you talkin bout Willis?" I asked her who coined that phrase, she couldn't remember. When she finally did, her answer was "Hannah Montana."</p>

    Yikes.</p>
