Not quite 40 yet and had a couple of midlife crisis inducing moments in last few months.
1.) At my wifes ultrasound the tech said, " your baby is in the corner", I immediatly retorted, "no one puts baby in the corner." Waiting for the pending histerical laughter I was disappointed when the tech said, "oh ok". It hit me she was too young to get the Dirty Dancing reference.
2.) In vegas playing blackjack and a newly engaged couple joins the table. After 20 min of small talk there birthdate comes up. They were born the year I graduated highschool.
I told my wife I need a Corvette. _________________ Is President Obama a Keynesian? |

LOL
Such a shame about the DD reference. Who cares how young they are, they should see all those cult classic 80's movies. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

This happens with my gf sometimes.
Today, she didn't know about Popeye, about how he gets his strength from spinach and all.
She only knows the songs I know b/c she has played them on Guitar Hero. |

Yeah, this happened with some girls I dated when making pop culture reference and they look at you like "wtf are you talking about?"
At my wifes work they were talking about Curt Cobain dying awhile back, I guess it was like the 20 year anniversary or something, and one of the girls didn't know who Nirvana was. |

Neognosis, haha, in my head it sounded like Buckwheat from the old SNL days. _________________

Such great stuff the younger generation missed out on...those Eddie Murphy years on SNL were classic, with Buckwheat sings, James Brown, Velvet Jones, etc. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

I just looked up and said "I'm Velvet Jones" in my Eddie Murphy voice.
I got nothing back from my office mates. Nothing.
I'm about to say "Break his neck? WHAT THE HECK! C-I-L-L, my landlord"
and... nothing. _________________ I walk 47 miles of barb wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie, a brand new house up on the road side, and it's made out of rattlesnake hide |
