Rock’n’roll was new and cool in 1959.
- pavlov 8y agoExactly. 40-year-old people mostly didn't get new and cool.
- p1esk 8y agoStick horse riding is neither new nor cool in 2019.
- pavlov 8y agoThousands of pre-teens disagree.
- p1esk 8y agoYeah, I'm pretty sure if you do a poll of random 12yo girls those who think it's "cool" will be a rounding error. For the record, I'm all for fun physical activities like this, just don't try to compare it to rock'n'roll.
- pavlov 8y agoI guess I wasn’t communicating all that clearly. What I meant was that middle-aged people tend to misunderstand/underestimate even the huge rising trends like rock’n’roll — so they’re even more likely to make a wrong summary judgment on fringe activities like this.
