Question for those who dislike traditional things...

[King]

Pretty much everything has been said.  But yes, pop music is really the only thing that sucks about modern times and, frankly, pop music has always been bad.  Go look at the Billboard #1 hits of the 70s, 80s, and 90s and tell me honestly how many of those are classics you can still listen to today.

Film, television, and print are more skillfully crafted and emotionally honest than ever.  Meanwhile, horrible things like "popular fashions" are almost non-existent as subcultures have broken out and there's more individuality in such things than ever before.

Of course, Mike doesn't see this through his a Freudian complex.

I came up with this formula just the other day:

I wish we had the social protocol of 1910,
The fashion of 1940,
The politics of 1950
The technological level of 1970, and
The medical technology and racial relations of 2100.

Fasion of the 1940s with social protocol of the 1910s does not compute.
