P.S. I wonder how many of the people younger than me (i.e. in their late teens or early twenties) will catch the reference to the anti-drug commercial. Is that something that is still around?
I made a joke about a flux capacitor once and my student had no idea what I was talking about, so I wonder how much of that pop culture stuff from the late 80s and early 90s is still around. Perhaps that VH1 show helps with this, I dunno.
Isn't that greatness? The egg bit at the end brought tears to my eyes - that was totally unexpected. I loved it, though I also wondered about history enthusiast's point! Will MTV viewers get that reference?
I assume that our generation is the target audience for this ad, and there's probably another ad around for younger folks and yet another for older folks.
I met you at the book signing at BlogHer, BTW. Loved your blog name and checked you out. I like what I see and you have been duly added to my BlogLines. :-)
It was great meeting you. You have a great site here - very thoughtful commentary on a variety of topics!
LOL! That is priceless!
ReplyDeleteI love the girl from Buffy...I forget her name now.
