Are you down with the kids?

12% but only with lucky guesses. Would have helped if I had even heard of those people.
I did much better with Gracesmum quiz but stuck a bit on the acronyms (can't think why !!)

36% by pure guess work and one or two known answers! Would have been more if i had realised i could have entered more names on 1D question. I have had coaching in that from DGD!

Penstemmon I hereby hand the DWTK's crown over to you!

I didn't know any of the media ones but I was spot on with the London words.

Actually, thinking about it KMT is MUCH more effective than some of what passes for bad language on here.

Gracesmum, your quiz was genius, and not just because I did rather well!

I got 44% on the kids one and rather more on Gracesmum's one.

Very funny Gracesmum.

I don't think my teenage grandchildren would expect me to know any of the answers. Which is just as well coz I didn't.

I didn't do much better on Gracesmum's either.

I thought CUATGC was See You After the Geriatric Ceilidh.

Can I join in the cube, or is it a dodecahedron by now? I got 4% too. Gracesmum's one was much more fun. Does TFMN mean Totally Forgotten My Name?

I got 68% on the kids one ( still have a young DS) but still could not figure out how to share my success on Facebook!

I scored nil on the young test, but got everything but the acronyms right on our GN test.

By sheer guesswork I got 16% on the kids' one. Obviously I don't see enough of the GC. No probs with yours, G'mum!

40% - surprised, because my adult kids don't know many of these.

Gracesmum, precisely. Why should I want to be 'down with the kids'.

I never expected my parents/grandparents to know and understand my youth culture so why should I be expected to understand my children's/grandchildren's. I am not a disapproving old fogey, I am just not interested. I am quite happy that the generations below me have a different culture to me.

In fact not all children share the same interests. My children were teenagers in the 1980s. DS's passion was folk and protest music, DD's Hollywood musicals. It was a battle of could DD ramp up her Judy Garland music sufficiently to drown DS's Billy Bragg - and vice versa. The only pop group that ever interested either of them was Bon Jovi.
