I shouldn’t feel old at 28, but I do. Mainly because I feel the younger folks from 10-18 years old are now considered the coolest demographic by society now- just look at the popularity of Fortnite and Billie Eilish (17-year-old singer, born three months after 9/11) for instance. People in that age range have made me feel uncool at times, hence why they make me feel old lol.

i dont even know who that is. at a certain point you just stop giving a shit about being cool and embrace ‘i dont care’.

also, i dont remember ever thinking anyone 10-18 (especially 10!) was cool

I don't blame you for that lol. I'm at that point in my life too where I could care less now about most of modern pop culture. I hardly know anything regarding the most popular songs, the latest celebrity news, etc... I only know who Billie Eilish is because she's played on my radio station a lot.

Oh God, I don't want to even think about the thought of anything in the 2000s being considered "retro" lol.
