I was talking to someone (younger, obviously) and they used the phrase “in the late 1900s” completely unironically. It stopped me dead in my tracks and took my brain about 5 seconds to compute. By the time I was able to speak again, the only thing I could say was “you need to shut the fuck up and leave right now.”
As an elder millennial (84, fuckers) I’m really struggling with entering middle age. But I guess I just approach it the same way my generation has approached everything else, with a weird mix of existential dread and wry humor (hat tip to Gen X for starting that, though).
“All the Small Things” came out 24 years ago, in 1999. Meaning it came out last millennium!
I remember getting this CD at a virgin records store. We’re getting old, you fuckin whippersnappers.
in the 1900s?!?! 🤯
Saying that All the Small Things came out in the late 1900s gives this a different feel

I do love these wild boys you listed. I’d certainly love to see them at the rock show before the end of the world as we know it 🤘
I know you were just stringing song references together (because I’m old too) but that would be a helluva concert
God, I read that in Casey Kasem’s voice.
Duran Duran, one “r” for each word.
Duran Duran is where we’re from
And doing this is real good fun
Must be the music, so I guess
RIght here on WMMS

I really hate saying “turn of the century” and having to specify which century.
Welp, I knew it would happen sometime. I’m outta here before I miss the 4:30 auto-gyro.
The album with the song talking about being 23… is now 24 years old. Ouch.
