Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

My sunglasses are broken but I found a backup pair. The problem with the backup pair is that it makes me look like I’m a part of that meme of yelling angry people in your mentions telling you why you need to stand for the anthem.
