How young were you when you first heard something that made you feel old?

This was illustrated in a movie, but I heard it firsthand; I was about 30 when I was with some friends and a guy said, "yes, everyone remembers where they were when they heard Kennedy had been shot," and this 19 year old said, "Wait, Ted Kennedy was shot ?" 🤨

This was in the early 2000’s before the vinyl resurgence back when vinyl wasn’t cool. I was at a music store that was basically a CD reseller that also happened to have a couple of crates of records on the floor, which I was looking through. A young mother and her son walked into the store, and the kid walks straight to a record crate. He pulls a vinyl record out of its sleeve and says “Look mommy…..it’s a big CD.” The mother then begins to explain to her child, “a long time ago….way before you were born…”

Meanwhile me:

When I was in my early 20s, the kids next door (9-14) didn't know who Prince (the artist) was. 😵

Are you kidding me??
Everytime my 30 something son tries to explain some feature on the phone and goes about it as if this is the first time I've seen a phone.
I know what streaming is dude.

My pride and joy, back in the day…

(Nièce: What was that used for ?😳)

About 6 when someone mansplained Elvis Presleys music to me. He'd been my favorite singer more than a year already.

40's, sitting in a pizza shop when heard 2 girls talking and one said can you believe my mom grew up with a phone that hung on the wall

At least 10 years ago maybe more, a coworker never heard of the movie, When Harry Met Sally.

I work with people who were born after the internet, and have never used a corded phone or phone booth.

I don't feel old yet

Paul died almost 60 years ago.

We get to an age when we realise that things we knew and experienced are now considered historical events and facts and that not everyone is aware of them
