Smells like Teen Spirit
I see that Smells like Teen Spirit is Wikipedia’s featured article today. Cool! I was a huge fan at the time, although these days the only Nirvana album I listen to much is Bleach.
Nirvana were such a phenomenon that when my year at high school were deciding what slogan to put on our Year 12 jerseys, the most popular choice was “Oh well, whatever, nevermind”. I can’t think of any slogan less appropriate for us- in general my year was smart, motivated and would do anything for a few more marks in an assessment task. But that’s what we went with.
The photo shows the lyrics embroidered on the right pocket of my jersey. Another piece of clothing that I never wear but can’t throw away.
