    Wife & I are chaperoning our son’s 80s themed middle school dance! How wild is it when the old school music is from our childhood?!

        I wish I could film this one completely carefree boy who has danced all over the floor tonight. He gives ZERO FUCKS about what anybody here thinks about him. It's a mix between weird and badass, but he's having a blast.

        My 11 year old was listening to the radio version of Forgot About Dre with his friend, thinking they were all cool. I opened the door and rapped the refrain and the looks on their face was priceless.

        Husband and I took our daughters to MoPOP in Seattle last weekend and my 10 yo was baffled by Nirvana. Explaining the influence of grunge as a 36 yo mother of 2 was confusing for all of us. 😂

        .@MoPOPSeattle is great. That’s how my then-13-yo got into Nirvana. She was like, “Mooooom, why didn’t you tell me Nirvana was so cool?” Move over Beastie Boys. 🤣✌🏼

        Geez mom 😂 My daughter also has loved early Beatles and Elton John since she was a preschooler, so she's had some style opinions from an early age. Apparently grunge doesn't fit her aesthetic

        Same feeling when you listen to the “Oldies” station on the radio and hear everything from high school. 😬

        Nirvana and Pearl Jam are now solidly considered to be Classic Rock. Kills me.

        I'm in childcare and I CACKLE when all the grade 3s(it's always grade 3 for some reason) discover Baby Got Back. They're whispering it to each other like it's the biggest (heh) secret ever
