Have you heard that song about a girl being stuck in 1985. I don't know who sings it but at first I really hated it because I'm thinking "Who are these little snots coming along and ripping on my generation?" But the more I listen to it, it makes me think of all the snobs I went to high school with who had thier "glory days" back then and who spend the rest of thier lives looking back rather than enjoying what's going on now. And I think that's really the point of the song.
But if you think about how things were when you were 18 (especially if you were 18 during or before the 80's), and then think about how they are now, would you ever have imagined that the world would be the way it is now?
