Going to Blockbuster, one of the more hip and happening pastimes of the previous generation of young people, is undoubtedly a false interest of all contemporary young people. The disingenuous nature of this interest explains why Blockbuster is going out of business faster than the rate at which boys are blowin' up Ke$ha's phones, phones.
Young people pretend to like going to blockbuster because it makes them feel like they knew what life was like before technology, a false belief crucial to the happiness of any young person. This enables the young person to tell their future kids, grandkids, and the kid a few years younger than them tall tales of having to trek all the way into town and go to the local video store, a trek usually completed via a car with automatic transmission and air-conditioning. At some point during this story it is crucial for the young person to mention the VCR, as it adds an unbridled element of "back in the day."
This concept of "going to the store" has appeal for all young people, as it helps them remember the times where they used to go to Toys R Us, a place where the young person would often buy something that was popular for about 15 minutes, such as Furbies and/or the V-Link Phone.
Going to blockbuster is a false interest because like, come on dude. 8 Mile's on Netflix. And yo, I just illegally downloaded Die Hard if you wanna watch that instead. Shit's ridiculous
