ANOTHER THING Younger Americans may have trouble believing:

Piggybacking off kpete’s thread
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=11822634

When “the kids” these days hear The Blood Hound Gangs “The Bad Touch” (from their groundbreaking album title “Hurray for Boobies”) they think, “The Discovery Channel? So we’re supposed to ‘do It” in Alaska drinking moonshine in a tiny house?”
—-actually that sounds like a fun weekend 👅

You know the song. Don’t act like you don’t.

“You and me baby ain’t nothing but mammals,
So let’s do it like they do on the Discovery Channel”




So ladies and gentlemen THE BLOOD HOUND GANG!!
Oh like I need to say this Not Safe For Work

1. I watched Star Wars, but I never blew up a planet

[underpants]

2. You haven't?

Was that wrong? Should I have not done that?

Asking for a friend

[jberryhill]

3. Well, let's hope your friend wasn't on Alderan

[underpants]

4. We can never confirm nor deny

Being in the proximity of Alderan or not being in the proximity of Alderan before or after it supposedly blew up.

[NewJeffCT]

6. Alderaan blew up? My girlfriend had a place there

I guess I won't be looking for love in Alderaan places

[underpants]

10. Oh!! I had to take a standing 8 count on that one

[happybird]

7. Alderaan chunks everywhere!

5. As a Gen Xer, when can we launch Millenials in the sun?

I was listening to the "Punch Up the Jam" podcast on Love Shack, and I had to turn it off when the two hosts and their guest were totally flummoxed by the line "I've got me a Chrysler, it seats about twenty."

I don't think they know what a 1978 Chrysler looks like and were clearly not bothered to check.

I fully admit this is a crazy thing to be angry about....but damn it, I'm angry.

[underpants]

8. The sun?

How about to Planet Claire?



BTW RuPaul was in the Love Shack video

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. You do know the Boomers said the same thing about us, correct?

And the generation before that said the same thing about the Boomers?

And yes, the Millennials will be saying the same thing about whatever generation comes after them?

It's a stupid, endless cycle.

Each generation whines and complains about how the generation that comes after them are a bunch of spoiled, lazy bums.

[theboss]

11. I am. They were wrong. I am not.

The are the second worst generation ever, behind the Boomers.

[underpants]

12. It's those damned kids with their rock n roll!

and fluoride in the water<—-that’s the commies

[jberryhill]

13. .

[underpants]

14. Yes!

Col. Bat Guano: Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: What?
Col. Bat Guano: You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.

[theboss]

17. As a Gen Xer, I get that reference

No Millenial has seen that movie or knows what the Cold War was.

I've spoken to them.

Into the sun!!!!!

[theboss]

16. It's more with their Snapchat

I don't like 'em.

15. When you figure out how to use the computer controlling the launch program.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

18. '78 chrysler, pffft!

A '78 Chrysler is the spare you haul in the trunk of your '76 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, 500 cid (8.2L)!

[theboss]

19. My cousin had a 78 El Dorado

You could transport an entire Little League team to the Dairy Queen in the trunk.

[jmowreader]

20. it's a good thing he sold it

Nowadays the cops go ape shit if you haul Little League teams around in your trunk.

21. My Mom's 1977 Cadillac Sedan DeVille is still sitting at her house

It ran up until about 2 years ago, but it still has all the original seals and hoses and they are giving out. A family of eight could travel in that thing with all their luggage.

It has either 22,000 miles or 122,000 miles - we're not sure if it ever rolled over. She only drove it around town and mostly used it to pick up her DAR friends for events. The interior is still in pristine condition.

Powder blue with a white vinyl top.

22. EBAY!

Somebody desperately wants that land yacht. I guarantee it. (Tried to buy a 482 or 500 Caddy engine a few years ago; might as well get a crate engine for what a running old Caddy costs).

[csziggy]

25. There is already someone interested in it - see my other message

I know what you mean about those big old engines - they are hard to get. I'm hanging onto my 1999 GMC 2500 Suburban until I die. It's got the 454 engine in it, still in great shape. With under 175,000 miles on it and since we're not driving cross country showing horses anymore, it should last me the rest of my life.

[theboss]

23. What state does she live in?

I may need this car.

[csziggy]

24. Florida

If you are interested send a message to my Inbox here. I'll give youmy sister's contact info.

I do have to warn you - one of the movers who loaded the furniture I got out of the house this wee is really interested, too. My sister who is executor wants to leave the cars there as long as possible so it looks as though someone is still living there.

26. older millennials will remember this song

I'm an xennial (1980) and was around 19 when this song came out. I still remember it (and have it on my workout playlist). THe 'kids' who won't remember it now are Gen Z.

That said, I'd love to mess with a GOP political candidate's playlist so when he does a rally, this song is playing.

27. You're welcomd to come up but it's true -

there's more outdoors than indoors here in the Interior.
