Too Cool for Old School

I’m back, on an IBM ThinkPad which is surprisingly comfortable to use. I need to share this conversation I overheard between my boys yesterday morning, while they were packing their lunches for school:

Nathan: I’m glad Mom bought us Pizza Lunchables; ham and cheese is so old school.

Ryan: Nathan, you’re only in the second grade. How can you call something “old school” when you haven’t even been to school that much?

Nathan: Ham and cheese was like the first Lunchable ever. It’s so lame, it’s old school.

Ryan: You’re crazy! Ham and cheese is a CLASSIC.

   Oddly, I’m having the same level of discussions as second graders. Hmm.

   Kids talking about “old school” and “classics.”

   That’s too much.

   Did you explain that “old school” is a favorable description, as is “classic”?Perhaps you could suggest “retro” as a synonym as well.

   “Lame” on the other hand…an appropriate synonym there would be “passe” or “out of style”.

   Anyway, they crack me up! I look forward to overhearing such conversations!!

    That is too funny! I love it. It is like the other day my five year old little princess called cousin a “cute little kid”! I just about burst from holding back laughter.
