My Spotify AI dj refuses to say "1980s" correctly. It's like someone had a grudge against the 80s when they programmed the AI. It only ever says "the nineteen-hundred and eighties" and I feel personally attacked every time!π
Our 14yo kept accidentally saying βthe late 1800βsβ when talking about a show based in the 90βs and I caught myself being hurt for a second π
I remember a few years ago hearing about "mid century furniture" and it was 1950's furniture. Having been born during that time, sure made me feel old.π€£π€£
Itβs ok. Every generation goes through this; eventually theyβll have their own panic attacks when their kids/grandkids refer to something they grew up with as a mysterious, ancient thing.
Those little ba$tards don't understand the pain we went through in the 90s! The lie of "Anti-Skip" on portable CD players! Double-Sided DVDs! The pinks, purples, teals! They haunt my dreams!
