occasional friendly reminder to my man Whiney that he won't even be approaching "old" for another 10 years & any energy whatsoever spent worrying abt old v. young is a tragic waste of time 'n' energy

you're only as old as the booger you pick

you guys have wildly missed the point of the thread and I think you're a pair of hopeless idiots

Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 1 April 2011 17:42 (thirteen years ago) link

the point of the thread is pointing out when young rappers start making references to stuff that came way after your time and therefore make you feel old

Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 1 April 2011 17:44 (thirteen years ago) link

boogers are timeless

lol just funnin dude

I dunno, I don't share this problem. rap has been making references to things older/younger/totally incomprehensible to me since I've been listening to it (this is actually one of the things that has kept it interesting)

also m@tt OTM boogers are 4evr

I am about the most hopeful idiot around

when you "feel old" and you're still in the bloom of youth you "sound dumb" to people who've actually got a little wear on their tires is all - not that this is anything new, young cats are always looking for excuses to go "I'm gettin old!" cf. Alice Cooper's "Eighteen"

I can't wait til I'm 100 complaining about those young whippersnappers in their 70s and their Power Rangers references

in my world of loose geirs (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 1 April 2011 17:50 (thirteen years ago) link

power rangers has been around for like 20 years. in fact i think i might still have the backpack, lunchbox, and punch noise-making gloves around somewhere.....

i guess you're younger than me, thus proving the point of the thread

some of these rappers need to get up on Monster In My Pocket, that's a ready-made reference and MIMP was the business

Evil monsters led by drackula are chased by good monsters across the world.

Both sides are shrunk to bug size and end up in LA.

The good monsters make friends with a young girl who helps them fight the evil monsters and takes them were they want to go in her pocket.

The show is called "monster in my pocket", yet the title of some prints say "monster in her pocket"

Ned Raggett, Friday, 1 April 2011 17:59 (thirteen years ago) link

lol

I went to Youtube to look for the terrible commercials for the toys ("I've got Monster in MY Pocket, too!") and found clips to a cartoon series I never knew existed. My cartoon-fu is obviously growing shaky.

multiple xposts make that show even creepier

also somehow Alanis Morissette has become even more suspect/sinister

good lord, there was an entire wave of toys like this

5. all of rap's 'finding nemo' references in the past few years

J0rdan S., Friday, 1 April 2011 18:39 (thirteen years ago) link

how can they make references to things that came after me unless i'm dead? sadly the wild friggin' thornberrys is on my t.v. at this very moment.

scott seward, Friday, 1 April 2011 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link

that sounds like a pr0n takeoff

whelping at his sandpapery best (DJP), Friday, 1 April 2011 18:49 (thirteen years ago) link
