welcome to old age. your knees will go next.
My back: Allow me to throw myself out.
My eyes: From now on, keep text at least one foot away from me.
Hasn’t happened to me because I listen to video game music and if my local grocer fucking started playing the Monster Hunter theme I would absolutely lose my shit.
(Once in Japan a small shop selling pottery was playing a song from FF5 and I bought a lovely cup out of principle).
The grocery store I work for played the Skyrim theme once, fuck I felt awesome while cutting watermelon.
I became the Melonborn!
No it isn’t and I’m old too. It’s either butt rock, dad rock, pop, rap that’s actually just pop now, or terrible country. Barely of each is even passable but there’s a few gems in each except for the country which would need to go older or play Charley Crockett and they won’t.
And there’s still good stuff coming out, it’s just (as usual since like '97) it gets no radio play outside listener sponsored or college stations. Satellite excluded, terrestrial only.
Nirvana as elevator music. RiP
Can’t fucking wait for the grocery store to play Sandstorm.
Always be looking for worse music. Never let them figure you out.
I can’t tell if death metal is mainstream or not yet, but branching into tech in 2007 is serving me well in keeping the normies freaked out.
