Everything these days it seems.

Its even worse when you think you are pretty up to date with references and such things then you or somebody younger makes a reference and the other has no idea what is meant.

On rugby tour about 20 years ago, one team member had a girlfriend at university nearby, she came along one day, she brought a mate along. Boys being boys thought, we all thought that we were in with a little action.

The subject of the Star Wars came up in conversation, I think one of the sequels was out. We all recalled going to see it at the cinema and the excitement around it at the time.

Quite innocently the tag along mate piped up " I wasn't born when that came out ".

Cue 4 or 5 blokes looking wistfully at their pints thinking that beer would be their only pleasure today.
