I’m half-listening to a TV show on which the host said he was bringing on a legendary guest and I braced myself. I’ve never heard of him. How could someone be “legendary” yet unknown to me? He is supposedly a comedian. He’s not funny. (Half-listening, because I’m writing this at the same time.)
Crossword puzzles have brought it home to me that I am not living culturally in this contemporary world, since a slew of clues refer to, I presume, gamer things. I know nothing about gamer things; I’ve never played a game of that kind. And I don’t want to.
Also, puzzle clues hint at pop and/or TV stars whom I have never heard of and even if I have, I don’t know the names of their albums or TV shows. Or songs.
If I had children, I bet they’d be humiliating me every day and I’d have to convert a closet into a cave where I can hide while they sneer in my direction.
