Especially all the toxic shit we used to do to our selves. Lathering up with baby oil and laying in the sun...spraying sun-in in our hair. WTF were we thinking.
My students don't know the following: Polaroid pictures (though they do know the phrase "shake it like a Polaroid picture," thank you Outkast) Saved by the Bell Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Lite Brite
One of my students told me I text like his dad (using my index finger, LOL).

When I told my middle school students that I like Mumford & Sons, they said "they sound too old." They also shot me dirty looks when I said that Justin Bieber makes me want to vomit. They declared him the most amazing person ever in the world.
Every time I see one of those stickers stating what year a person must have been born in to legally buy alcohol or cigarettes, I feel old. People born in 1995 can legally buy a pack of cigarettes. WHAT.
over christmas at my parent's house, their landline phone rang and my 3 year old niece was all freaked out like what the heck is that sound. my sister said she's probably never heard that before.

Show like Friends and Sex and the City have been off the air for almost a decade.
... and yet tourists still flock to Perry Street to eat Magnolia Cupcakes on the stoop next to Carrie's stoop (you can't sit on the actual stoop) and the Sex and the City tourbuses always seem crowded. Sex and the City is still alive and well among the tourists in the West Village!
A ton of people also take pictures outside of the Friends building, but I understand that more than the having to eat cupcakes on the (wrong) stoop thing.
Working with new lawyers who were in MIDDLE SCHOOL on 9/11.
The elementary school kid I tutor does not know what 9/11 is. When I explained (nevermind the fact that she's not learning about this in school) she gave me the blank stare and said, "Of course I don't know about it. I wasn't even born!"
