10 Sure-Fire Signs You're Turning Into Your Mother

3. Your Music Tastes Start Becoming A Lot More Stagnant

Maybe it's a sign of your growing taste, maybe it's just the way that music is constantly changing and evolving, but gosh darn it if your musical taste doesn't start stagnating, just like your mother's did before you. That doesn't mean you don't like music anymore - hell you still go around checking out more music. It's just that... a lot of it is starting to sound kind of like aural garbage. Seriously, you can turn on the radio and whatever comes on just sounds awful. You immediately turn on your mp3 player of choice, and feel much better. Even at parties, it can be hard as hell to actually just let go and dance and enjoy the music because the frankly awful music on display. If you do dance, it's with the kind of expression that indicates physical pain and the silent prayers that something less modern comes on. All those times your mother sat out the more modern tunes at any big family event suddenly make sense. However, it makes the relief and joy all the sweeter when the DJ decides to be kind and send you one of your favourite songs, and you lead the charge onto the dancefloor.
