no carved memento mori has been more powerful than this post.

Our lecturer had a picture of a blonde woman up on a slide and clearly expected us to know who she was, but we're all Gen Z so none of us did. I guessed Princess Diana which was incorrect. It's this photo btw

in my defence, old people froth princess di. I vaguely remember my grandmother trying to teach me about grief by using 'how sad everyone was when diana died' and I thought diana was a personal friend of hers

Lol, it's the not knowing who paris hilton is that gets me. IDK about D.

I'm Gen X and I didn't recognise her and couldn't tell you anything about her, though I know her name, because the name I've always assumed she was a 'socialite' meaning that she's the child of a wealthy person whose drunken antics are used for entertainment.

Paris Hilton is best described as "The one that came before the Kardashians". That fact you don't know her not only means she has thankfully evaporated into irrelevancy, but promises that one day, we too will be free of the sisters K.

To be fair, Paris Hilton used to show up on the news a whole lot more often than she does now.
