you know you're getting old when you still consider metallica's "Black Album" as their new stuff and the album was released 25 years ago.

Used to think it was a joke thing, but you know you're getting old when the music teenagers and the early 20-somethings listen to sounds like absolute shit. I'm not a rap connoisseur by any stretch but hot fucking damn, they aren't even trying to rhyme anymore.

i bet kids dont even know what a phonebooth is. too bad, they will never know the trick of making free phone calls. make a collect call, wait for the recording to beep to say your name. instead repeat the number on the payphone so the party on the other end can call you back for nothing. yay!

Still the odd phone booth around here.

People buy/sell meth/crack/whatever with them. Think thats their only use now.

thats pretty sad. the old library by me used to have a bank of phonebooths. the old wooden ones and you open the door, get in, close the door and the light comes on. it was soundproofed pretty well too.

808's dominate rap songs now more than flow or lyrics, you used to have to be good because you had to flesh out the song with impressive flow changes or clever wordplay

Now days the beats are so heavy and full the actual rapping is just another sound in the mix to alot of people

The classic rock station where I live is definetly not classic rock. Black Hole Sun and other 90's stuff does not qualify...yet.

I get the shits twice a month

In my 20s I don't think I got the shits twice a year. And when I did it was when I was sick.

Now it's just business as usual diarrhea.

When the late 90s music they play on modern Classical rock stations is older than the 70s music they played on Classical rock stations that I listened to when I was young...

Whenever I see a teenager in a Nirvana t-shirt I don't know whether to feel sad or just punch them lol

Lyrically relevant

That said, I relate very much to not understanding the music of today. Ever gone to youtube and look at songs that hit 4-500+ million hits? I don't understand.

New girl at work. Fresh out of college, super cute. I talked with her a bit, managed an excuse to get her number. You know, for work reasons, totally professional /wink wink. Ended up texting a bit, she asked if I'm single (awww yeahh....)

She's now trying to set me up with her mom :(
