@cstross A Nu Metal band. You had to be 13 years old during a very limited window of time for this to matter :P

@grimmware I am unfamiliar with Nu Metal.

@cstross I'm only just starting to shed the embarrassment that this is my heritage.

@grimmware @cstross There is no shame in admitting your shame. I only know Linkin Park via my wife, who knows no shame. (cc @CatRyan)

@kianryan @grimmware @cstross I sit here in my Barbie t-shirt, with a drawer full of nin, electric 6, and Amanda Palmer shirts... Of course you mention my choice of nu metal in my Youth.. of course.

@cstross They're a super popular nu metal band from the 2000s. Like @grimmware, I couldn't not notice that once I saw that, especially since every single new section starts with a Linkin Park lyric. Did you read the entire article? The author acknowledges that that's what they did in the last couple paragraphs.
