For the seniors in here... You didn't know the old bands and movies and whatnot from 30 or 40 or 50 or 60 years before you were in your 20s because you wanted to know them. You knew them because you had no other options. As has already been stated, you had one TV with four channels, one radio, one record player, and for some of you who are ancient, probably one phonograph.
Girls in their 20s now have, since the age they've had an interest in music, been able to access anything they want within seconds.
There's a reason there aren't new rock bands coming out now and selling out football stadiums like decades ago; where you used to be forced to listen to whatever bands the two rock radio stations in town gave you, now they don't listen to the radio. They don't buy records or tapes or CDs. If they purchase music, it's a song or two a la carte. They listen to Spotify and whatever else is streaming. Instead of being force fed two bands, they're listening to one song from 100 bands. Instead of a couple massive ones like the Stones or Led Zeppelin selling out stadiums, there are hundreds of little bands selling out venues that hold 2000.
The times, they've been a changin'.
This all reminds me of when Grandpa Simpson told Homer he used to be "with it", but then what "it" was changed.

She's probably heard the Stones but didn't know it. Her grandparents listened to them. Her parents grew up listening to The Police or Pat Benatar or Nirvana or Snoop.
In the early 90s when I was a kid, we'd visit my grandparents a couple times / year, and my grandfather would play the 1940s big band station on the AM dial... Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, etc., while driving to the store. I "heard" it, but didn't "listen" to it, had no idea who those people were until I was in my 30s and screwing around on Sirius XM, trying to find any interesting stations to save.
If you showed her a pic of Jagger, she'd probably think he was somebody's meth head great grandfather. If you showed her a pic of Keith Richards, she'd probably say "oh that's the guy from Pirates of the Caribbean". If you showed her any of the others she'd probably think they were just a couple old guys who came in the day before you did.

I've never had a problem with spelling, grammar, or capitalization while typing on my phone like I am now. I may have the occasional thumb fuck up, especially when drunk (like now), but since I've been using the English language since I learned to speak and write way back in the 1980s, I can generally get my point across coherently and without egregious errors.

On a warm night when drinking tequila, The Refreshments "Nada" is great.
https://youtu.be/YRggQuaLE6k
Ted Nugent "Stranglehold" is a good one.
Nathaniel Rateliff and the Nightsweats "S.O.B." is fun.
https://youtu.be/1iAYhQsQhSY
And when getting really fucked up with a bunch of people, anything from when we were growing up where everybody knows the words: ACDC "Shook Me All Night Long", Michael Jackson "Bad", Garth Brooks "Low Places" Warren G & Nate Dogg "Regulators", Billy Joel (the guy not the "secret" description) "Piano Man".

I'm 6'3, and tall chicks kinda freak me out. Years ago went out once with a girl who was 5'11, and I just wasn't feeling it at all that night (though it may have been because she was annoying as hell).

If anyone in Phoenix is going to walk up to random women behind a cash register and ask them to fuck for $200, please let me know in advance. I'd pay to see that...gotta be funnier than most comedy movies lately.

Encountering some random woman out and about in the "real" world and offering money for sex? Can't imagine how that could ever possibly go wrong...

So can he graduate?
Or will he be losing a whole year?
How's it gonna be,

40.
I say this at 41, and having spent the weekend with a bunch of same-age buddies for a fantasy football draft, and realizing one of them has a kid who's a high school senior.
Also...Judgement Day (per T2) was 25 years ago today. If you saw that in the theater (I did), you're old.

Al Michaels and Bob Uecker are awesome. Doc Emrick was great. Ernie Harwell and Vin Scully were fantastic.
But my all-time favorite? Gary Thorne. When ESPN got hockey back, I was so stoked, hoping they'd bring him back. It didn't happen. Lame.

When I saw this topic, I immediately thought of Danny Trejo and Michael Ironside. And damn, they're both up there: 395 and 270. James Hong with 440... I think I may need to watch Big Trouble in Little China again soon.

I watched that a couple years ago, and presumed neither of them would show anything, especially at this point in their respective careers. But I still had hope...
Alas, my presumption was right. But if I'm gonna get tied to a bed and wrongfully accused of having a threeway, Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz is a pretty fucking good way to go.

As far as NCAA, I mean blue is my favorite color, so I did Carolina's blue. Michigan home jerseys blue shirt, yellow pants, Illinois football has some cool combos, FSU's helmet is pretty sweet, UCLA blues are nice. But don't sleep on Purdue; when they go black on black on black for home games...that looks wicked.

Motorhead - yeah, StL Cardinals whites are classic.
Pearl Jam concert posters change for each show, and the artists usually make them tie in to the location. I would love to get my hands on the Cardinals-esque poster from a show they did in StL.

Muddy, good call on a lot of those.
MLB: yeah, I love the As and Dodgers home whites...so clean. Tigers home whites with that old English D is perfection,
NFL: Lions in Honolulu blue, and those old BUCS creamsicles with the pirate biting the knife on the helmet
NBA: early 90s (as opposed to late) Sonics green, mid-90s Suns black, Hawks red (or was it black?) with the hawk clutching the ball
NHL: SOOOOO many are awesome. Hartford Whalers, Coyotes kachina, Red Wings just got named the best by some online pub, Blackhawks reds are among the best in all of sports and should never be changed. The old Islanders Van de Kamps were fantastic. Nordiques blue, Panthers red, Lightning blue... I remember being like 12 years old and totally stoked for a hat from the new team with the killer logo: SJ Sharks. Actually, that one might be way up at the top. Sharks blue jerseys are awesome.

Interesting question, though. Much moreso than what fake blonde Asian with Cs is working at Desire from 3-10 on the 3rd Tuesday of every month? One of those titty bar memo pad clowns has the answer.

Would I hire her? No. Easy choice. And it's got nothing to do with qualifications or acceptance. It's like the Colin Kaepernick of office jobs; is the headache worth the benefit? If "sex work" is on the resume, how long is it until the co-workers all know? A day? Less? That's multiple HR complaints and lawsuits waiting to happen because horny dudes who otherwise got their work done are now preoccupied with trying to be the first guy to nail the new chick in the break room. "Sales" would be better.

None of the above. I'm an experienced, accomplished boozer. If I feel like I need to take a leak, I finish the drink I have, then go. When I get back to the bar, I get a new one.
Brilliant!

At the place by my house that happens pretty regularly (during slow periods). Unless she's chomping on it like a cow and talking with a mouth full of food, what the hell do I care? People have to eat. I've never been in a strip club dressing room, but I sure as hell wouldn't want to eat a meal in a locker room.
