Artist's Comments

There are just some things that other kids have missed.

This really started when I was talking to someone younger and they didn't know about Rocky Horror Picture Show... I mean, how do you get through Halloween without hearing "Let's do the Time Warp Again" (of course, most young'uns don't know where that song comes from...)

That lead to me talking with my roommate about all the things from our childhood. Furbies, Backstreet Boys, Animaniacs... and the fact that Pokemon started with my generation. Of course Rocky Horror isn't really from my time, but its still a cult classic that is just such a part of our culture that you have to see because its always referenced and has such a huge following. I'm not saying you have to like it, but its one of those movies you just have to know about, like Gone With the Wind, and Casablanca.

Also, my roommate looked at Nick magazine and said that she didn't recognize any of the stars in there.

So... this leads to us feeling old... I'm not even THAT old...

Now, don't fail me now friends Let's Do the Time Warp Again

don't worry too much, i get the same problem!! its kinda weird though when i'm sat in class and i here someone i totally wouldn't expect to be talking about(preps), discussing pokemon!!! i was like wut? but discuss that sort of thing with younger folk (not that i discuss pokemon to random people much), even if they are just a year younger(well give or take a few months) you've got to realize that younger people would only be little kids, too young to appreciate these things!!
Rocky Horror FTW!!!

Weird coincidences... I mentioned Rocky Horror to some people here, and they had never even heard of it.
An odd feeling, indeed...

And by all means, wreak havoc wherever you go.

Yeah.
Its just feels weird that the kids of today don't even care about the stuff of yesterday.

There are so many of these cult classics that they're neglecting, just because its not "in" anymore...
