26 Things Rolling Stone Readers Have Never Heard Of

Fuck you, dad!

Rolling Stone's "50 Things Millenials Have Never Heard Of" is a marvelously constructed piece of clickbait, a 50-page slideshow that manages to trigger nostalgia, confusion and the part of the brain that makes thinkpieces happen in both millenials and old people alike. But it's also a thrown gauntlet. It says, "Look at these kids! Ha!", explicitly declaring that the magazine's target audience is "not millenials".
