my friend is an idiot:

"The average person of our generation doesn't know who Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire is."


I had to show him clips lol cause he never heard of either.

good boy.

Now ask your friends to see if they know that.

I wanna see if he's right/wrong about the average person thing.

[Seanr]

I've heard of both

[Seanr]

But not everyone is a well cultured muthafucka like myself.

[Mertron]

I know them both but I am old

[Ksandra]

But not everyone is a well cultured muthafucka like myself.

in my head they are like Marilyn Monroe status, even if you've never seen their movies you should at least know who they are. So dunno how cultured a person has to be to have heard of them.


Though I know my knowledge is skewed cause we used to watch their movies with my mom all the time lol.


Especially Kelly, he was so hawt <3

who the fuck is marilyn monroe

I've heard of both and can easily spot Gene Kelly in a cast lineup (though can't necessarily remember right off the top of my head all the movies he's done); Astaire I've heard of and recognize his talent but are less likely to identify his face.

who the fuck is marilyn monroe

she was married to JFK

[Norellicus]

Also, Marilyn Monroe is the correct spelling, Mertron was playing off the whole "idk who these hugely famous people are" schtick we have going here

If you've never been exposed in anyway... then of course you wouldn't know of them. That goes for any past star. 50 Years will go by and we'll be like what you've never heard of [Insert Celebrity Here] To our grandchildren.. or maybe they'll say that to their friends.
