Everyone constructs a personal narrative to romanticize their emotional connection to a song or artist.

Mr. Scruff: Get a Move On
I remember when I was 23 or so and working my first city data entering job, there was this guy there who was old but seemed kind of cool. He talked about how he used to ride a longboard around when he was my age. But his not riding his longboard actually stands out as cooler to me than the one older guy who I do see around the city that DOES ride his longboard. This one kind of cool older guy, though, tipped me to the origins of this song and how it wasn't just used in techno remixes and car commercials. After he quit that bad job I saw him in a bar a year or two later and I was still working that bad job and I pretended I didn’t see him.
