True story; when he was younger, I forbade flat brims in the house.  I bought a fitted cap of his favorite baseball team.  I told him he had to bend the cap and that he couldn't wear it with a flat brim.  He refused. I said if I see it outside of his room, I would bend it (as like a typical kid, he left his stuff all over).  He kept it in his room for over a year before he slipped up and left it in the living room.  He found it in his room the next morning with a nice curve it in.

Even though I think flat brim hats look stupid, why would you do that?  Why do you care?  He should be able to wear the hat as he sees fit.

how come Gen X gets to escape this?

Gen X is a really weird and hyper-individualized generation whose low birth rates (so goes the narrative) will always make it culturally insignificant compared to Boomers and Millennials.

We did have Kurt Cobain as our sort of generational spokesperson, for all the good or ill of it.

2Pac and Biggie too- the GenXness crosses all boundaries

I was trying to think of female generational voices, frankly, because we had quite a few.

I wouldn't say 2Pac really, because he didn't speak universally, Biggie rapped about money too much to have it be anything but a glorified inventory list at times, which is why I think Tribe, actually, if you're going hip hop, was the universal voice of that generation.

I see no changes, wake up in the morning and I ask myself
Is life worth living should I blast myself?

Similar to what he was telling me, though he emphasized every non snapback was a dad hat.  I implored to him that "dads" don't wear snapbacks due to the cheap hats we were forced to wear playing baseball as kids.  We were scarred and never want to wear an ill fitting snap back again, as we now know better.  He thought the stoopid look of snapback conveyed style but i disagreed.

We didn't even get into the flat brim and sticker issues.  And that is for the best.

what always bothered me about snapbacks is unless you have very, very short hair, you get that stupid looking bunch of hair sticking out the hole in the back.

this is how i used to feel about it until my cousin started getting in to it and dj'ing. it's not my deal but a lot of these kids came to edm from hiphop and i can respect that. it seems to be an sort of natural progression for white hiphop fans as they age. 

:shrug:

hip hop has to one of the most embarrassing parts of being a millennial, gen x ...whatever.

did you see how the women dressed? i didn't even know girls had curves until recently.

their shoulders were MASSIVE.

ETA:  Until we were married, I had no idea that my wife had the shoulders of Ray Nitschke.  

It's the knees that are giving her problems these days though.

I’m assuming it’s just a hat that has the traditional snaps on the back. Rather than a fitted cap?

who knows

Oh.  I've got like 8 of those.  

 
I get the black ice thing because it’s kinda science, but shuke being confused about caps is odd shtick.  Wasn’t he a frat guy?  Those guys like invented the hats look.
