Fighting for the Right to Party

I had a weird moment today where I realized just how old the Beastie Boys are. I always thought the song "Fight for Your Right" came out while I was in high school 'cause that's when it was the most popular and when I first heard it. But my 30 year old friend was sure it came out while he was in high school. Then I talked to a coworker who's almost 40 and he was sure it came out while he was in high school. Imagine being so influential as to directly impact the lives of high school students across at least two decades. It really give me a whole new respect for 40 year old rappers.

    I didn't know that was a Beastie Boys' song. In fact, the only song by them that I thought I knew up until now is 'Sabotage'. And it's not because I've heard it, because I haven't. It's because of this guy:
