Part way through it I realized I did not recognize most of the “celebrities”.

My wife and I have that same sort of experience when we watch Jeopardy. If the category is about pop culture, it is almost always recent stuff and we usually don't know any of the correct responses. They are getting more and more recent because the younger contestants frequently have not even seen a black and white movie. If the category is about rap/hip-hop, I don't even guess.

I have not watched Jeopardy in a very long time so I did not consider it, but I suppose you are correct. There is differently a generation gap in this country.

I laugh because they have never seen a pay phone or a rotary dial phone and they laugh because I don’t know how to send messages on my cell phone.

The world has past me by and the only thing I can do is sit along side of the road and watch it pass by.

It is hell to get old, but I don’t envy the world the Democrats are creating for our young people.
