LOL. Been there too. But I don't worry about it.

Ha. Monday I was conducting an online class in a specialized computer communications protocol and mentioned that a particular message was equivalent to "Car 54, Where Are You?"

One of the "students" noted that I was dating myself. Ironically, I just looked it up and learned it was a TV sitcom -- which I never saw because we didn't get our first TV until after the program ended. All I knew was the question.

OTOH, maybe the kids today don't know the quote.

"Car 54, Where are you?" was a sitcom based on a Mutt and Jeff pair of cops.

I'll wait while you look that up.

Officer Toody was fond of saying, "Ooh, ooh, ooh!" apparently whenever he had what he thought was an inspiring thought.
