Paul McCartney may still be alive, but I'm sure he's dead on the inside. Speaking of which, that reverse-emo thing you suggested is bloody hilarious. I would seriously pay to see a trend like that start. Perhaps it's already starting...anyone who's gone past a Supre store of late would notice that there's this massive fluro theme going on. Although that's probably more because people who shop there heaps hate themselves.

I agree that the better indicator is the music turning up in the 'classics' section. It's already happening to a fair bit of 90's music. Nevermind and What's the Story, Morning Glory? are now being referred to as 'classic' albums, and not just in the 'this is really good stuff!' sense either. Hence it probably won't take too long for other more recent music to start getting classified that way as well ( ... )

When does it become a life goal to acquire as many cats as you can fit into a single building?

When all your children have left and you're suffering from empty nest syndrome? Or maybe by then people have just gone batshit, who knows.

You don't have glasses.

reverse emo kids that are happy ALL THE TIME, wear nothing but day-glo, and listen to the 2050 equivalent of the beach boys.

We have this already. They're called stupid rich kids. They're much more fucking annoying than emo kids.

Good point with the rich kids, but at least they hang out in Toorak etc rather than Flinders. I'm required to go to bloody Flinders.

It's not really the same thing, being rich isn't a form of rebellion, being emo is.

Hip hop is gonna be the thing that sorta makes me realise I'm old, I think. It's a young genre - started in 79'. When I see Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z moving with the help of diamond studded walking frames is when I'm going to realise for sure that I'm no longer young.
