Informal Poll around the office

[Hollywood]

I have asked no less than 10 people under the age of 25. Of the ~10 people I have asked, only ONE recognized the following names. Most of the people looked at me like I was crazy.

Sammy Hagar
Richard Pryor
Janis Joplin
The A Team
NWA
Easy-E
Wham
The Breakfast Club
Robert Plant

Some had heard of the movie Ferris Beuhllers Day Off, but none had seen it.

I am fucking old.

[Turd Ferguson]

That ain't right.

[Jeffro]

I don't know that I've ever seen Ferris Bueller, but I recognize the whole list.

[Bleacher Creature]

I remember reading Street and Snith's baseball guide when I was a kid. I used to see guys with birth years in the 1930's. Now I'll be seeing the 1990's here, real soon. Now that's getting OLD!

4 or 5 years ago, a lady from my office went to Rams camp and brought back a roster. Out of everyone there at camp, only 3 guys were older than me. That sucked.

where do you work? an elementary school?

actually on Project Runway this season, Tim Gunn was talking to one of the designers and said something like "it has a Sgt. Pepper kind of feel to it." and this designer goes "oh. I dont' know what that is...." the conversation got worse when it became apparent that the designer thought sgt. pepper was something from the 1920's.

Ahhh, rap. No wonder I didn't recognize them.

[Bleacher Creature]
