The great thing about millennial is that they're wrong in adorably comical ways instead of like, being wrong about how great crack is. When they grow out of it they'll be pretty good as a generation.

My first porn was online at another kid's house and then I think later when an internet acquaintance IM'd me a picture of a woman on AOL with a file name like DO_NOT_OPEN_AROUND_PARENTS.jpg

I think Spool and I are a good example. We’re way closer in age than I am to Bleric, but Bleric is who I talk to more about music and memes and politics.
Spool is my older brother who shows me good adulting stuff like how to cook things and be a good partner and parent. But he also listens to a lot of Depeche Mode, so sadly our camps can never break bread together.

omg kids these days never had to deal with smoking mids or dialup porn
If you’re on the late 70s-early 80s cusp, your grouping is dependent on how hard you go to bat for Depeche Mode
KMFDM
does that stand for kill mother fuckin depeche mode? i never bothered to learn whether that was just a joke or not
i'm sure it's actually just an acronym for something in german
Yeah, it was just a string of German words. But then they went and wrote a song called Kill Mother Fucking Depeche Mode too.
On that particular song, I was just telling the story of when KMFDM came to the U.S. the first time, and we were always asked, "What does it stand for? What does it stand for?" And I always had to come up with this long-winded explanation, you know, "It stands for kind of song long German phrase that then translates as blah."
And one of Ministry's guitar roadies said, "Why do you go through the trouble every time? Just say, 'Kill Mother Fucking Depeche Mode.'" And as I was telling this guy this story, I was like, "Hey, man, there's never been a song with 'Kill Mother Fucking Depeche Mode' in it." About ten minutes later the lyrics for the song were written, and that is that.

And then they dropped one album as MDFMK, which had one good single that sounds a lot like Depeche Mode
Some days Blue wonders why anyone ever bothered making numbers so small; other days she supposes even infinity needs to start somewhere.
It was jazz mags in the woods or poring over the underwear section of the Freemans catalogue, with a chaser of watching Channel 4's late night 'European' art house films which made you read subtitles for an hour before showing you a boob.
I was born in the 70s, had VJs I liked, and connect more to clerks / slacker shit in general, but I also have affinity towards millennial internet culture.
I am definitely a bridge between the two.
internet culture is kind of relevant to anyone under 45 at this point
I guess with the ubiquitous condescension and criticism heaped upon "millennials" it makes sense that us older millennials are always looking for ways to seperate ourselves from those other lesser millennials, but it is of course the ruling boomer class that wants us to feel that way and we should be working together to destroy them.
Never forget that it’s not the kids who are wrong. I’m serious about this. Those Tide-pod eatin’ polyamorous dumbasses are gonna save us all.
Well they're gonna have to, lord knows everyone else has proven themselves utterly fucking incapable of doing anything other than making the situation worse.

Oh and of course Page 3 in the papers. Not in the paper my parents took, so I had no ready access, but if a friend's parents took The Sun or The Star an excuse would be found to 'see what's on TV tonight'.
I can't decide if Page 3 is going to end up as one of those things kids won't believe happened or something so trivially bland it'll be considered evidence of a more innocent time. OMG you had boobs in the newspaper vs OMG you think boobs are naughty?
And Showtime free weekends. Just waiting for that to descramble on Friday night. The reason you learned how to program a VCR, so you could record Red Shoe Diaries to hold you over until the next free weekend.
I don't know what kind of weird palm-to-palm furtive samizdat-sharing was going on in the 80s but u genx sumbitches need to learn that no one is going to click on an unmarked video of unknown length unless they ur parents or ur kids

I've always wondered about that. I imagine the cable companies could have just as easily showed a blacked out screen for the Playboy Channel but instead chose to show swirling colors. Did the hope of a clear glimpse of titty slightly raise subscription rates?

our newspapers are too classy to put a straight up pinup girl in
very very high coverage of breast cancer news is what they do. And any other possible excuse to put boobs on the front page.
