NotForgotten

The strangest difference between my generation (Millennial) and Gen Z that I've found is the near total disconnect from past generations pop culture. Most Millennials and Gen Xers grew up in a time where we still we were still somewhat connected to the shows and music of our parents. I'm 43 and still remember growing up watching reruns of Leave it to Beaver, a show that had gone off the air around 20 years before I was born. I knew about bands and singers that had stopped performing or died before I came into this world. It doesn't mean that we were necessarily into them, but we knew about them. Today, many younger Gen Z people barely know about anything from the Millennial generation, never mind Gen X. It's easy to look at it as a "These damn kids don't know anything" thing, but it's really not the case. It's just the internet. Growing up, pop culture was slowly developed. Trends happened in slow motion. We often grew up looking to past generations for things like that. Today, new pop culture is created instantaneously. It spreads like fire. New shows, new music, new trends. The old guard being replaced by the new guard faster than they could even be created before the internet. It's more disposable because there's so much waiting to replace it. There's never a shortage. In the end, it's just pop culture, nothing important. What's scary is when things that are important are forgotten in the age of the revolving door. That's happening as well, and you never know what will replace it.

I dont care about anything else in Fallout except The Ghoul. I really tried. I dont care about vault people, the brotherhood...none of them. I'm yawning & wanting to fast forward through every scene without the ghoul. This show is 100% Walter's
