I realized something weird/strange/kinda bad/a lil unfortunate:
Im starting 2 feel rly old.
Im starting 2 feel like im part of the "old" ppl in the wrld.
Im starting 2 understand what ppl mean when they use the term "generational gap".
I feel like im getting 2 this point in life where there's no turning back, where things r beginning to bcum "set in stone".
Its this mysterious point that any1 who is 23/31/42/53/64 yrs old plus or minus can relate 2.
Its that point where u realize that ur age bracket is no longer the age demographic that mainstream media is trying 2 target anymore.
When u realize that all the commercials on tv arent rly meant 4 u, even tho ur watching them.
When u realize that ur at a concert nd ur standing in a sea of ppl younger than u.
When u realize that most of the latest newz being blogged about in the blogosphere r things uve never even heard about b4.
When u realize that u can no longer walk in2 a BestBuy without feeling rly overwhelemed nd depressed.
When u realize how scared u r 4 the next generation nd how overexposed they seem 2 b in comparison 2 us "older ppl".
But srsly...
There seems 2 b a lot more out there 2day thats techincally targeted 4 kids that I fear will prove rly dangerous 4 lil kiddies as they continue to "grow up".
Exmpl: This shit below.
TeleVision programmes like this just cant b good 4 kids.
This is something that should only b exposed 2 my frnds and I when we're on hallucinogenics.
Scared 4 the day when YoungAdultz look back on their childhood nd remember YoGabbaGabba as a show they watched when they were rly lil.
Just want 2 go back 2 a time when the stuff geared toward kids didnt cause me 2 have acid trip flashbacks.
Just want 2 go back 2 a time when a parent's biggest worry was that their kid would want 2 get Slimed.
Just want 2 go back 2 a time when the most intense sexual themes on tv were carefully concealed within the Brady Bunch, expressed thru Greg's acts of coersion, like getting middleschool girls 2 dance 4 him.
Miss u SimplerTimes.
Thankful that YouTube can bring us all back 2 those SimplerTimes b4 I/u/u's all got 2 "old" 4 society 2 apply 2 u anymore.
Wondring if there's any hope 2 bring the kids of 2day back 2 the SimplerTimes of our past.
Hoping that Obama will do something about this.
xx hint: the solution might involve sensorship lolz xx
Trying 2 listen 2 more music that represents SimplerTimes.
Such as this wonderful cover of a timeless, SimplerTimes classic Nick Drake.
This cover of "Cello Song" is by The Books + José González, which is 1 of the best duos ive ever heard of. So chill-out, so indie, so beautifully soothing.
Plz do urself a favor nd enjoy:
A lil scared of the lil Bitches of 2day,
José
