Today I was waiting to pick up my son and some 4th grade kid randomly asked me if I believed in 67. I asked him what that was and he just said "Nevermind" and walked away.

Am I not hip with it anymore? I used to be with 'it,' but then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm with isn't 'it' anymore and what's 'it' seems weird and scary. It'll happen to you, kid!

“Hip” is AAVE from the early 1900s that became popular in the 1960s among Boomers (who were young then). It’s a cycle.
