This is a community for young(ish) people who feel like they're getting old before their time because they have what most people think of as "old-people interests". It's not stuff that's really retro, not even ironically styley, it's just kinda nerdy and naff, but here naff is good. So if your friends look askance at your passion for Nana Mouskouri, lawn bowls and quiet nights in, you should find sympathy here :)
