This is seriously a mystery to me.

I wish they’d stop pressuring people with a smug “You know what I’m talking about, right?” attitude over references that even Gen Z—heck, even the Millennial “Yutori” generation—might not even know.

Old Media assumes you should know Reiwa-era artists too, so I guess it’s fair.
4 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:22:53 ID:BPqP
“Old Media” lol
6 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:23:30 ID:NirI

It’s a term old folks like, so I’m using it on purpose.

They lack self-awareness.
It’s made by a generation that grew up in an era where everyone was expected to know the same things.

That’s the bad habit of the “TV baby” generation.
Their boundaries between generations are all blurry.

Decades ago, I was talking to some young kids and they didn’t know Pink Lady.
That’s when I realized we just weren’t on the same page.

It’s still better than being forced to act like you know K-Pop.
17 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:33:23 ID:NirI

What kind of logic is that? Saying pushing Korean trends is bad but pushing Showa trends is fine?
10 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:29:23 ID:l7Dj
I think it’s abnormal that Hibari Misora and Momoe Yamaguchi are still being played to death during golden time in the Reiwa era.
13 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:31:23 ID:NirI
>>10
Even the current generation of kids doesn’t force their interests on people like “everyone should know what I know,” you know.
12 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:31:06 ID:aTBl
Well, they’re making shows for the Showa generation, so obviously that’s going to happen.
It’s like complaining that a Hanshin Tigers broadcast assumes you know who Bass, Kakefu, and Okada are.
15 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:32:26 ID:NirI
>>12
Of course I’m going to complain.
That kind of peer pressure from the older generation is just so baffling.
14 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:32:16 ID:mxCm
They’re like “Dragon Ball boomers.”
16 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:32:53 ID:91eJ
There aren’t any kids left who even know who Amuro-chan is.
18 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:34:43 ID:9zkz
TV is meant to cater to the majority anyway.
19 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:35:07 ID:sVV2
Are people still using the term “Old Media”?
20 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:37:49 ID:Es3M
>>19
Exactly. Calling it “trash” is fine too.
22 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:40:42 ID:sNzu
Nobu from Chidori makes those specific pop-culture references during his tsukkomi routines sometimes too.
Like “Is this a RADWIMPS lyric!?”
I’m just like, “I have no idea what that is.”
25 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/07/06(Mon) 07:48:01 ID:eJx0
Movies must be tough, huh?
Because the list of “movies you should have seen if you’re a film fan” just keeps growing lol.
