South Park

All right,

now come on.

Open presents.

Open presents!

Yeah, open mine first,

Stan.

It's the red one.

Where's mine?

Where's mine? Where's mine?

Where's mine?

Here you go, sweetie.

Yay!

Wait, wait.

It's Stan's birthday.

Yes, every time somebody

gets a birthday present,

Eric gets one too.

Otherwise...

He gets a little upset.

What'd I get? What'd I get?

What'd I get?

Oh, God.

Oh, cool, Legos.

Thanks, Butters.

I know how you like Legos.

Happy birthday!

Oh, cool,

I got a racing a game for Xbox.

You guys see that?

Cool, huh?

Here, this one's

from me, Stan.

Oh, thanks, dude.

Stan's getting

another present, Mom.

Here you are, muffin.

Yay!

Oh, cool, look!

A Ben 10 wrist rocket!

That's exactly what I wanted

for Stan's birthday!

What'd you get, Stan?

Oh, cool! Is this the new

Gersploosh album?

Yeah, dude!

Uh, hold it.

Is that a tween-wave band?

Yeah, they're the best!

Sorry, Stan, you know

you're not allowed

to listen to this stuff.

Mom, I'm ten years old now.

I've told you what I think

of this music, Stanley.

You have plenty

of other gifts to enjoy.

Looks like somebody's

on the rag, huh, Mom?

Sharon, Stan told me

you took away his music CD

at his birthday party.

Oh, for crying out loud!

I gave him a great party,

and that's all he cares about.

Well, do you really think

we should be telling our son

what music he can

and can't listen to?

Yes, I do, if it's that

stupid tween-wave garbage.

Tween-wave?

You haven't heard it?

It's terrible!

It's hardly even music.

It just sounds like crap.

Sharon, come on.

Don't you remember

being younger

and having our parents say

the music we liked

sounded like crap?

This is different.

So.

Here we are.

Now we're the old people

who think the younger

generation's music

sounds like shit.

It's not because I'm older.

I'm telling you,

our music was better.

Back in my day,

our music was better!

Not this garbage

the young'uns listen to!

Warble, warble, warble!

Fine, Randy!

You go listen to it

and tell me

you don't think

it sounds like crap.

I'd love to.

I'm not an old fuddy-duddy,

Sharon.

I'm still cool.

Well?

It sounds like crap, right?

Uh—

No, I mean, I like it.

Oh, come on!

That music sounds like shit!

No, it's just...

young and hip,

so you don't get it, Sharon.

Admit it, Randy!

You think it sounds

like crap too!

It doesn't sound

like crap at all!

I think it's awesome!

Ugh!

It's called "tween-wave,"

and if you're a parent,

your kids are probably

listening to it.

A new music genre

for the era from 2009

through 2012,

or the tweens.

Every generation

has their music,

but many parents say

tween-wave

sounds like crap.

It's just vulgar

and stupid, you know?

Music used to be good.

This sounds like poo!

I certainly don't understand

kids' music today.

Sounds like diarrhea to me.

Kids, however,

say they don't hear crap at all.

Parents are dumb!

They don't get it!

They don't get it.

Parents are stupid!

Tween-wave is swick!

Tween-wave is super swick.

Parents don't get it

'cause their ears are old.

Parents are dumb!

We're sorry, boys,

but we have all decided

that as of now,

none of you are allowed

to listen to tween-wave music.

Ugh!

God, that's so unfair!

But that's our music.

We like it.

Yeah, it's good!

What's good

about a bunch of crap sounds

to a drum beat?

We don't know

what you're talking about.

It doesn't sound

that way to us!

Yeah, it doesn't sound

like that to us.

I want to educate you kids

with some real music.

This is the Police.

Now, you compare this

to tween pop

and tell us which one

you think is real music.

kids: Ugh!
