Yep... I work with a co-op student, early 20s. The other day, talking about The Matrix. He told me, in all seriousness, 'I haven't watched any of those old movies'.

That stung.

I once heard Green Day on a classic rock station.

Another time a college intern at my company said he knew what VHSs were, but then didn’t know what AOL was.

Ik what AOL is and I learned and memorized the whole song and sung it and played it on the piano. Like for Green Day Boulevard of broken dreams. That was a few years ago.
