Sometimes zoomers on here are literally just like "I just turned 20, which everyone knows means that I have peaked in my taste in media and guess what? I actually HATE that thing Millennials/Gen X/Boomers love! This has never been done before and I'm an innovator"
When I was 20 I enjoyed Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle. You were ten 10 years ago, sit down.
I'm not saying you're required to like The Beatles or whatever, I'm just saying making a performative "This is BAD, actually!" about Popular Thing in your early 20's makes you look less mature, not more mature lol
Specifically when said Popular Thing is popular with people older than you, I should clarify

Like something being popular for decades doesn't mean it's objectively good, but it also doesn't mean people are that interested in how people who were children 3 years ago feel about it
People buying The Beatles 1 album in 2001: God I CANNOT wait to find out what infants literally born yesterday will think about this. Honestly what am I even doing listening to it before I get their take on it???
Okay that's as close as I get to being an old grump lol
Anyway this thread was specifically in response to someone calling The Breakfast Club "boring reagancore" and like I'm not gonna die on the "Breakfast Club is perfect" hill, but come the fuck on lol
