This was easy but have no idea what a boomerang is but I don't use Instagram. I never owned an ipod but they are easy to use.

The iPod was throwing me until they blew me away by actually making it so I have to spin my finger on the pad. If I hadn't been on mobile idk if I ever would've got past thinking "Did he fucking feature with someone? I don't fucking listen to Sufjan Stevens..."

yeah, they should've picked a more common artist. i thought it was a trick about knowing the lead singer of a band at first.

I would say they picked a pretty millennial specific artist.

[–] JustAnotherRando@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

Really? I have no idea who that artist is. Is it someone I've just forgotten about from when we were younger?

I think the issue is that it's not also millenial-universal. If only some millenials know it, the rest of us is left out.

I can still operate the iPod though, so I don't need to know who it is to look for and select.

I pressed Your Story and it worked just as well.
