My actual favorite KITH sketch because it's how the past ten years of politics, journalism, and business have felt to me.

I made a "sashay, shante" reference to someone under 40 and got a blank stare. I try to keep a mental catalog of which of my references are so dated as to come off like I'm speaking in tongues.

Adding Barry Corbin to the list of beloved character actors I assumed were long dead, but are actually still working in stuff I don't watch. The 85 year old is on Brothers, and I realize I'm now in the general age window of when he played Maurice Minnifield on Northern Exposure.
