...or so apparently the world would like to think. How else can one explain the phenomenon of new "It-blog" MY PARENTS WERE AWESOME? A surprisingly simple but ultra groovy site oozing with nostalgia where anyone can send in photos of their parents and grandparents from a time "before the fanny packs and Andrea Bocelli concerts".
It's a comforting daily post-it reminding us that yes, before rules about curfews and parties and riding cars with boys, they too (along with thick moustaches, greased-down hair, slim waistbands and big skirts) were once fashionable, happy-go-lucky folks that knew how to have a damn good time.
I've already submitted this photo:
Mak, Tato, Chicha, Bear: one day we hope you think we're pretty awesome ourselves.
