Honestly pretty frightening that a 21 year old adult right now is someone who has no memories from the late 80′s to roughly 2001 because there’s basically nothing in the world right now, no media, no jokes, no fashion, no political horror, that isn’t visibly a direct end product of the culture and events I witnessed during that period.

So watching a lot of you interact with and discuss the world is a lot like watching someone come in halfway through a movie and not even realize it. You missed half the story that I watched develop and unlike I movie I can’t rewind it and show you how it all makes sense and what it all means.

Then there’s the horror of realizing the same thing applied to me and the entire world I know is just the aftermath of the 60′s and 70′s in ways I’m never going to be able to appreciate.
