And just like that, movies and music I still think of as being recent became “old school,” and a whole generation of kids who weren’t born when the World Trade Center fell are about to go into crippling student loan debt.

I remember not too long ago I was driving along, listening to the classic rock channel on Sirius and Pearl Jam came on. I was shocked. Right there alongside CCR and T-Rex.
Something certainly changed for me that day, when I realized Pearl Jam could be considered classic rock.
Yeah, nirvana on classic rock radio for me. That was a trip
I was yelling at the radio like “Oh, fuck you assholes. And yet you still won’t play the Ramones”
Looks like I need to rename my playlists then 🤔
My playlist titles are so OCD.
Now…. I really want to see your playlist(s).
They’re just very specifically categorized. And then I’ll sit there and go “idk where to put this song, is it ok if I add it to “late 90s crust punk” even tho it’s not???” And then I have to remind myself how ridiculous that is because who the fuck cares? Lol. I’m the only one seeing it
ohmygod I thought I was the only one!!
“Can I add this faster pussycat song to my 80s rock playlist even tho it came out in 1990?”
See… that’s the sort of dilemmas that I agonize (mildly) over. In the end, I go ahead and do it. (Then chastise myself every time it plays. lol)
I’m much less like that now than I used to be
