Primadonnas of the Gutter: Smells like Digitine Spirit
Description
Digital-guillotine = Digitine in the world of uncle Al [gorithm] and the children of the new millennium, as per usual these days, it is already outdated!
Amy Dee and I stretch our necks out to play with this micro-limited hangout movement where age matters and if you were born in the 1900s you are not in the club. "Bunk Bunk on the head" <-----Star Trek reference (see video below).
We tackle the battle of the generations and how the world we live in is the agenda, like a designer cake that we are all being served.
Please enjoy as the Primadonna’s discuss:
