Cultural references for freshmen

Yet another thing to make me feel old. CNN has an AP story up titled Cultural references for freshmen from Beloit College's Mindset List. Pretty scary. Some of the ones that stuck out to me:

  • 7. Bert and Ernie are old enough to be their parents.
  • 12. Gas has always been unleaded.
  • 30. Adam and PC Junior computers had vanished from the market before this generation went online.
  • 35. Directory assistance has never been free.
  • 48. Killer bees have always been swarming in the U.S.
