The Ruthless Aggression Era.
When you realise there's now legally adult people who are wrestling fans but were born after this period...

I was talking to a woman and her daughter who looked to be in her early twenties and during the conversation I brought up that one of my first memories was my mother telling me that Nixon had resigned. The mother told me that Watergate was before her time. Watergate had been a few years in the past when I was born and I have kids who are all in their 20's. Thanks for making me seem old, dude!

Had this happen about 10 years ago. My lady had gotten in this ceramic doll for her mother. This was one of those dolls with the uber white skin and to me they always look like corpses. She opens the box and there is teh doll wrapped in plastic. So I said "She's dead....Wrapped in Plastic!"
Get a blank stare,so I said it again. Blank stare again. "Wait did you not watch Twin Peaks?" "Nope I was 8 when it aired!"
I forget sometimes that I have almost 11 years on her. So there is plenty of times I will mention some pop culture thing from when I was in high school and she has no clue what I'm talking about....
Really felt old the other day when a stock clerk informed me "That only old people buy CDs. We younger people buy records!" I wanted to let the clerk know that when I was younger it was either records or 8 tracks. And that I don't have a record player in my car. Plus Records take up a pile of room. Then realized I would just be,to them,some old dude ranting about how the price of bread was 50 cents a loaf when I was younger..
Also made me feel really old when I realized the other day that a friend of mine's oldest kid,who was born 8 months after we finished high school,is turning 30 this year......

Honestly, I get that impression more when I discover something and then look up when it was released. Some examples:
-There is this band called Hüsker Dü, who made a song called "Don't Wanna Know If You Are Lonely". It easily sounds like something from the 90s, but it actually came out in 1986 and the band broke up the following year.
-A band called Wire had a song called "The 15th". When I first heard it, I thought it sounded like a more recent alternative song even though it came out in 1979.
