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:

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 ?" 🤨

When I was in grad school, I heard 2 young girls talking. One of them said that she didn't understand all the fuss about Mick Jagger..."so he has one hit song, so what?"
I looked at them and said "He was making lots of hit songs before you were even born."
They looked at me with a quizzical look....apparently unaware of the fact that he was in The Rolling Stones.

My pride and joy, back in the day…

(Nièce: What was that used for ?😳)

Last year around Halloween, I was doing my regular thrift store runs.
Some mom maybe 30 years old and her two young daughters were there in the book section looking for scary books.
One of them says, "What is Twilight?" I about fell over. I am glad no Millenials other than their mom were present, they would have d*ed.

It's just funny cause maybe 12 to 15 years ago, it was HUGE but now, the kids have no clue what it is.

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

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.

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

All, I remember is it quite a few years ago and Michael J. fox was on the cover of AARP..

I must have been twelve. It was whilst listening to the first movement in Walton's first symphony

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

Paul died almost 60 years ago.

When my niece didn't get the reference to Y2K

i watched a young person stare at a rotary phone confused...

I don't feel old yet

45 Would you like the senior citizen discount…..

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

I wish I were old. I would be closer to death. But still, this pained heart beats. And beats.

When will it stop?
