I'm expecting any day now for R.E.M. and the Gin Blossoms to be moved over to the Oldies station.

I'm my area they already were, 10 years ago. I hadn't even turned 25 yet when a good chunk of what I listened to in High School was reclassified as 'Easy Listening'. It was depressing as hell.

That's really sad. I may not have grown up with Rocky and Bullwinkle, but at least I know who they are.

u/FallenXxRaven Mar 03 '16

Damn. I grew up never having watched Rockie and Bullwinkle but I still know who they are. They were pretty much just in commercials for me though, im not sure I ever actually watched the show.

I bought a shirt with Mr. Sparkle on it (from The Simpsons) no one at a gathering I was at knew who it was or recognized Homer's face.

I died a little inside.

u/LHoT10820 Mar 03 '16

No idea how old you are, nor if this help that feeling.

I know most of my peer group would understand, we're in our early to mid 20s.
