Michele: Nostalgia

"Remember close-n-play record players?"

Sarah groaned. She was 30 years younger than anyone on the team, and nostalgia talk was code for "Sarah’s too young." Whenever she had a fresh ad idea, they’d start talking about old toys and cartoons that, conversations that shut her out and shut her up.

Her brilliant ad idea this morning was met with "Hey, remember lawn darts?"

Sarah stood up. "No. I don't remember lawn darts.. But one day when I’m sitting around reminiscing about Power Rangers, you will all either be dead or in nursing homes."

Close-n-play record players were never mentioned again.
