Nevermind Turns 20

Alright, I’m taking a little break from politics on this one. Why? To make all you Gen-Xers feel old.

You see, twenty years ago today your world changed. There wasn’t a new war being started. No one flew a plane into a building. There wasn’t a zombie apocalypse. Jesus Christ didn’t return.

No, your world changed in a whole different way. Maybe you began to wear a little more plaid. Maybe you started to wear your hair a little longer on top. (Maybe a lot.) Maybe you started to believe your punk-rock listening skater friends were actually on to something.

Yes, my friends, twenty years ago today your world changed forever. Yes, my friends, twenty years ago today Nirvana released Nevermind.

I was a 14-year old little idiot.
