Dear Jesus god I feel old

[Cerb]

... on the classic rock station you listen to.

No, on any of the rock stations (the classic rock station plays them the least, on top of that, being more 70s/80s-oriented), because I'm still paying off my car, and doing maintenance the previous owner got rid of it before doing, so haven't gone in and done anything about the radio, yet.

 

[RelaxTheMind]

I listen to the radio rarely. Was at my parents house for fathers day party and there is a new radio station has an "oldies" station that plays music from the late 80s and early 90s... so basically music from my prime high school days.

Doesn't make you old. It makes them babies.

I never get why this type of thing makes people feel old.

 

[zanejohnson]

oh god i feel old.


i remember ordering pot, from a payphone, pot with a few seeds (talking 5 in an ounce. and it cost like 30 bucks an ounce.

I'm 27 and my familiarity with those bands comes more from Rock Band than from radio. Also, every time someone mentions Nirvana I'm reminded of this.

 

[futurefields]

Just found out the intern in my office has never heard of the bands Peal Jam, and Nirvana.

Might as well put me in a box now.

i remember when both bands were new and hearing the name on the radio was a new thing "what that band called Pearl Jam? what the"

going backward in time from the year I was born, Warren Harding was president, and this was a popular tune...

Did he/she call you Sir? That really make you old.

I'll tell you what makes me feel old. When I look at my reflection in a store window, and I don't recognize for a couple seconds who the old guy is. But I feel better when realized that I remember my way back home.

Let's be honest with ourselves for a moment. Was it her lack of knowledge of these bands that really frustrated you or her voluptuous tits that you were, yet again, out of touch with? Let's self reflect.

Well considering our intern is a young man I would like to think that it is a good that that I am not obsessed with his man teets.

Twenty one years ago!

I know. My senior year of high school.

When i was growing up music that came out 20 years prior was on the "oldies" station. GAH!

 

[Sho'Nuff]

Somewhat similar anecdote here...

A guy I work with who is maybe 24 or so saw Foo Fighters recently. He said, 'I didn't know Dave Grohl could play the drums too!'.

Grohl might be one of the most talented musicians that came up in the 90s

... on the classic rock station you listen to.

Is there such a thing as "modern" rock? Most music on the top 40 station doesn't even contain real instruments.

Here's a fun pop quiz - name a billboard top 100 song in the last 5 years that contains an awesome guitar solo - ready? GO!

Here is an interesting game ask someone what their favorite Star Wars movie is. 30 or less = episode 3 36 or greater = episode 4 or 6.

WTF you on about? Everyone knows Episode 5 is the best one. I mean it's not even a contest and you don't even have it listed.

Who???

Remember though that those bands may have come on the scene after some of us stopped paying attention to those that like to make noise.

I was 4 years old and loving Patsy Cline and Johnny Cash.

Grew up listenning to both

Oops typo 5 or 6

guy needs to be bitch-slapped.

With a Buick.

Anyway, Pearl Jam and Nirvana still get played all the fucking time on the radio. Like, way too much, and only from Ten and Nevermind.

Which is a shame, since I've always like Vs better.
