The music I listened to in high school is now considered "retro."  WTF??? My MOMS music is retro. One of the local radio stations does a "Retro Ride Home" for Friday commuters and it's mostly 80s music with some 70s disco mixed in.

Sorry, 80s music was always retro. Even in the 80s. I'm musically embarrased for our generation.

Someone spots the 8-Track tape player (With Janice Joplin Tape In It) in my 1971 Westfalia Camper Bus and has no clue what the darn thing is

It is even funnier to see the expression on their faces when Janice Sings "Summertime" or better, "Ball and Chain" on said tape. (Complete with pause in the middle of Ball and Chain for the player to switch tracks)

The final straw is when you have to explain to them why an 8-Track tape only has 4 tracks on it. (8-Track Tapes are in Stereo and use 2 tape tracks for each recording)

Never mind that they are riding around in a 36 year old car

 Heh..me too. Truth be told, I didn't even listen to it. I listened to what is now deemed classic rock...music of the 60's!

DTraub - 2007-03-02 8:12 AM You hear the music of your youth that at the time was subervsive/alternative on Lite-Mix radio stations (Violent Femmes) or on TV commercials (The Smiths, The The, the Ramones).

There's an ad for Wendy's on TV set to "Blister in the Sun".

willow - 2007-03-01 10:00 AM you realize the cute guy you were just checking out could practically be your son...or better yet...could date your daughter!

You would let your daughter date???  You must be a really hip mom

Not yet...she is only 12. But boys are definately on the radar...(so I guess I meant hypotheticaly (sp!) if she were allowed to date...

but I am still a hip mom.

"It's Slinky, it's Slinky, for fun it's a wonderful toy. It's Slinky, it's Slinky, it's fun for a girl and a boy."

You know you are getting old when some nut on BT can post the above, and a stupid song gets stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
