The Downward Spiral

The other day (Friday) I had two conversations with my class mates that made me think.

The first one was when I, at the large table in the cafeteria, asked who else was exited about the new My Bloody Valentine album. Apparently no one in my class had even heard about My Bloody Valentine and so, when they asked me to hum some of their songs I just let the discussion fizzle out.
Later, as we were talking about the Girl with the dragon tattoo-films I mentioned that the American had a leg up on the Swedish, since Trent Reznor had made the music for it. After some vague looks one guy finally asked "who is that?", but after it was clear that none of them had heard of Reznor - or Nine Inch Nails - I went back to my seat. 

So this made me realise two things:
  1. Kids today don't know shit
  2. I am awesome!
