When I was in 6th grade all the cool kids had band names in White-Out on their backpacks. I'd only ever listened to my parents' music so I was clueless. One day I went home and put all the bands on my backpack I could remember. First thing the next day, I'm pressed to name a single Korn song and I failed.

6th grade was hell.

At leas toys had some idea of what was going on. There’s kids today who think Nirvana is a clothing brand

Even worse? Even most who knew Nirvana was a band forgot that Teen Spirit was an actual deodorant marketed towards teens

The same bully pressed me to name the band that did Teen Spirit and I guessed the Spin Doctors, my mom played them and that was as much "alternative" I knew 😅

Dark days bro.
