I got nothing...

Do people not watch the classics anymore?

In a meeting yesterday, I made a Casablanca reference, and the three others on the call hadn’t ever seen it.

I can’t relate the tale of what brought it up, but I made a reference to the scene where the French Police officer is standing in Rick’s and utters the phrase “I am shocked there is gambling happening here” and right after a croupier hands him his “winnings”.

It is an iconic scene, and I was completely shocked that none of my peers in that call had even seen Casablanca.

What is this world coming to? Good thing I didn't make a “Rosebud” reference…
