I feel old.

[Chovexani]

I'm on the phone with a kid right now, helping him fill out his 08-09 FAFSA right now, and accidentally yanked my headphones out of the computer's jack. It was playing Rick Astley, because this is the time of night at work that I listen to my 80s Cheez-o-rama playlist. The kid is all "dude, did somebody just Rickroll you? That's the Rickroll song!"

There's an entire generation that will only know the magic of St. Astley from the Rickroll. This saddens me. Also, makes me feel old.

1. more importantly, why were you listening to rick astley of free will?

[Chovexani]

2. I am working on a Lounge playlist in iTunes

So far it has Rick Astley, a couple of Laura Branigan songs, and Baby Got Back.

4. How old are you?

[Chovexani]

6. I'm only 26!

I'm not supposed to be shaking my cane at the younguns yet!

7. 26! You're a baby.....

...I know, you've probably heard that before....

But, this 44 year old guy, sitting on a blow-up dough-nut because his prostate is killing him, only wishes he was 26 again....:cry:

5. If it makes you feel any better

I liked Rick Astley the first time around... without the irony. :P

8. Even worse:

There's an entire generation of kids out there who never experienced the combo cartridge of Duck Hunt and Super Mario Brothers when it was the newest thing.

11. True story: I had a moment in Gamestop

Looking at the rack of GBA games, when some kid started squealing about the new Mario game.

...it was the port of SMB3. :cry:
