We were at a reception last night when Conlin's cousin plopped into the seat next to us. After a few moments the cousin leaned close to Conlin, nodded toward a youngish white male, and said, "Dude, that guy totally looks like Macklemore."
Conlin stared at the cousin, glanced at me, and finally muttered, "I don't know who that is."
I glanced at my shoes hoping to avoid the followup question. But his cousin turned to me, "You know who he is, right?"
I chose this moment to fake a mild seizure and muttered something unintelligible because no, I don't really know who that is. I know I should know, but...nope.
In a last-ditch attempt to salvage our "hip-ness" Conlin offered up a hopeful, "YOLO?" The cousin squinted at Conlin, trying to decipher his intent. I started snort-laughing.
Because, man. We're old.
