someone told me to download snapchat and i just had zero interest in everything about it that was, what, 2-3 popular social medias ago? 10 years or something like that?
Recently when I said to myself "Why the fuck are all these draft picks wearing sunglasses at night???"
When I graduated HS before Ohio State players were born Hearing kids have GPAs over 5 trips me out too, is there a new system?
When I tore my Achilles playing basketball and when I looked up the risk factors, top 3 was being over 30. When I went out with a 24 year old a few years back and she didn’t know any of the 90s music I was playing. This weekend when I went to my friend’s boyfriend’s house for her birthday pool party and remarked how well maintained the front lawns were of all the house on the block.
Bought a pair of bootcut jeans about 5 years ago and the girl at the counter checking me out said something to the effect of “my dad wears bootcut jeans too”
Young kid called me OG at the sneaker shop and I wanted to die. My kid asked me later at home why he called me that so I had to explain it to her while my wife laughed her ass off. Went to my room and played ps5 like a 14 yr old pouting.
I was playing the new Jedi game with my 11 year old. The pre NBA show was on and he asked about the Cleveland browns being in the NBA playoffs. I explained that was the football team and suggested he should know because of Nick chubb. #georgiafan My son had no idea who Nick chubb was. I'm a failure in more ways than I anticipated.
This is a good one as there’s an article in Wapo about “what your music says about your politics” or something and classic rock is an indicator of conservatism and classic rock is also wildly popular. Wellll, classic rock can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. Hearing Sugar Ray on the classic rock station is a bit different than Everly Brothers.
One of the younger guys I work with had no idea who Nelly was. Not just wasn't familiar with his songs. Had never heard of him. Blew my mind
that’s a failing of their parents not an indication you’re old. My kids know older music because I play it for them. I knew about the Stones the Beatles Van Halen The Chilites etc because of my parents snd older friends
Last night when the NBA tweeted out something about Terry Porter in the 1991 playoffs, and I realized the gap between that Blazers team and the prehistoric grainy film 1977 Blazers title team is the same (14 years) as whatever this Oregon football team is and the UO team that played Auburn in the BCSNCG.
One of the new employees at my company (who was born a week before 9/11) had no idea what the movie Major League was (and I work in sports). Also, this past weekend I wrote my 8-year-old nephew a check for his first communion (have a bunch that I need to get rid of) and he had no idea what it was and what it did. My sister and I had to explain it to him.
Definitely when I started having lower back problem, I pulled a muscle just standing up wrong from bad posture.
While at the optometrist, he's going over the scans of my eye and he comments about the plaque build up in the blood vessels. "Perfectly normal for someone your age."
Never had back pain a day in my life. Then I get surgery in February and can't bend or twist for 6 weeks and now I'm in constant pain
most educators had this moment with their first class of kids born after 9/11 for me this was a decade ago. so right now i’m feeling it.
Early Onset: My kids started beating me in video games. Pop Culture Relevance: I had a group of boys on a field trip for my daughter’s class in 2018. None of them knew LL Cool J or the song Mama Said knock You Out, despite being a bunch of affluent white kids from the suburbs. Physical: I had to get reading glasses at 49.
For me it's checking the age of random celebrities that will do it like Tom Cruise being 61 years old
Another one for me is having to use subtitles because my hearing is diminishing but now I’m having trouble reading the damn subtitles.
Your "practicum" student belongs in another thread, perv. (apologies in advance for a shitty joke that probably hits wrong on educators)
When I was getting out of a booth after dinner at a restaurant and I had to stretch right there because my back wouldn't let me stand up straight. I now pay a chiropractor monthly
