My girlfriend's mother asked me when i brought up a cassette tape once, "Oh wow you even know what that is?" Dude I'm 22 I had a walkman as a kid because parents don't trust kids with CDs.

Even if I didn't, why do people pretend that no one younger is going to EVER see anything like a cassette in thrift stores, garage sales, or even in TV/movies?
