The 80s Called: Memes and Tweets That Perfectly Sum Up What it Means To Be a Gen Xer

Intergenerational arguments are inevitable, but few are as contentious as those that center on musical tastes. When you consider how much music has changed in just a few decades, it is not difficult to see why so many people find themselves in heated arguments.

This meme first shows a Gen Xer’s reaction to hearing their Boomer father tell them that the Beetles ruined music. However, that same individual gets a similar response from their child when they try to explain that MTV was once not a misnomer. You might have some idea of how music will change in years to come, but are you confident you could explain to later generations how things in the music world once were?
