Who are these old farts singing "My Generation"? Warning: AOL, annoying advert, embarassing baby boomer content.

  • Broken.
  • I think they're the old farts Who sang it originally. Some folks' embarassing content is other folks' memory lane. I suppose I should be embarassed for listening to Little Darlin' on occasion, but I'm not. Your favoite music sucks, too.
  • Who are the old farts singing "My Generation".
  • *Puts glass in Torluath's dinner, and spikes in his seat. Drags him around by a lock of his hair, and gives him a push at the top of the stair. Shuts him outside to stand in the rain and catch cold, so he'll die.*
  • The Who just put out an album, first in over twenty years.
  • 'He stands like a statue Becomes part of the machine Feeling all the bumpers Always playing clean He plays by intuition The digit counters fall That deaf, dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pinball!!! *sigh*
  • They should have stopped in 1982 or whenever it was when they last said they would.
  • I like the new album.
  • 'Hope I die before I get old' should be understood for what it was: a big-nosed art student's bid for Street Cred. It's not really fair to hold people to the desperate stuff they say when they're kids. Granted, the annual Very Last Final Farewell tours were a bit embarassing; but by all accounts they don't sound too bad these days, for a couple of old farts. I haven't heard the new record, but I did just get myself my first CD copy of Quadrophenia, the album which sustained me through high school, and which I haven't really heard properly since I owned my last turntable- right around the time the Farewell Tour phase was getting underway. Can you see the real me? I've had enough of fashions and acting like I'm tough I'm bored with hate and passion I've had enough of trying to... Ahh... thass rock an' roll, innit?
  • I have no plans to buy the new album, but I've seen some interviews and tv performances, and I have to say that Daltrey's (Sorry -- can't spell names to save my life) voice sounds better than it has in *years*. He must have gotten good rest or a voice coach or something. Go old fart!
  • Just wait young one, one day a 54 year old Avril Lavigne will be belting out "Sk8er Boi" on the Sufjan Stevens Festivus Special. *Right here on NBC3D, followed by an all new LOST. This week the machine pulls down the Galactica, and Admiral Boxy finds the 13th colony.*
  • It might have been funnier if I'd gotten the right network. "ABC3D" /Or maybe not.
  • ABC3D-PO In the future, your television will be a gay robot.
  • Fabulous!
  • I watched Tommy last weekend. Genius, really. There's little that compares to the quality.
  • Ah, Quadrophenia. Innit is right.
  • I caught The Who at Live 8 in London two summers ago. The rocked out like the Grand Masters of their craft that they are. I thought nothing could ever top them. Then Pink Floyd hit the stage...
  • ...and the audience groaned we are the monkeys, we are the monkeys, we are the, we are the, we are the monkeys
  • Old people are stupid and should be killed.
