Also, cars and driving. Who cares as long as you get from A to B?

I can appreciate the irony that I'm posting this on a hair metal message board I've been on for 25 years but I was never here to talk about the good old days. Sure, a story or two is fine, especially if it's a good story but the idea of being frozen in time when it comes to music (or movies or TV shows or books, or pretty much anything else) makes me cringe. It also leads to the whole "kids today are lazy" "new music sucks" attitude that I just can't stand. I love a lot of music from he 80's and still listen to some of it regularly, but not because it takes me back to my first concert, or first handjob or anything else. I listen to it because it's good music and I enjoy it and I've listened to most of it enough over the last 30+ years that any of that "it immediately takes me back" feeling was stripped away years ago. I know people like this and I can't fathom the thought of listening to the same old music and watching the same old movies and TV shows over and over while shaking their fist at the clouds and telling everyone about how everything outside of their era/comfort zone is garbage.

I don't view nostalgia the same way. I don't want to live in the past, but I like the memories a certain something pulls from the depths of my brain. 10 seconds of a good time or person is cool. What you're talking about is the "get off my lawn guy" who hates anything current and wishes their life away, wanting it to be 1985 again. For me, there is a difference. Good memories are great. For instance, my first wife died 24 years ago when she was 33. It was a horrible time, but the good memories pop up now again from a song or scent. I love my life now. I loved it before she got sick, but it is two different lives, and I'm grateful to get a 2nd one. But I know what you mean. Those people that LIVE for class reunions, etc. I've never been to a high school or college reunion. No interest. My best friend from high school popped up on my phone after my dad died a year ago. I have no interest in hanging out with him. I don't even know that guy in 2024. I have current friends. I don't need that guy from 40 years ago bugging me.

The far-right ideological obsession in general by MAGAs and their typical knee-jerk right-wing outrage just frustrates me. Example: a white girl nursing student was unalived by some random dude with priors while jogging near the intramural fields at UGA in Athens Friday morning. Said dude was immediately revealed to be an undocumented Latino, so of course as soon as this happened the MAGAs immediately decided to play their favorite game of "pin the blame on the Biden administration's border policies" (complete with official outrage-feigning statements from Brian Kemp and a senator named Mike Collins). Had she been unalived by a black man they'd have been calling for a lynching mob. Had it been a man of her skin color, they would have simply shrugged their shoulders and skipped straight to the "thoughts and prayers"...

Did you just say “unalived”?
