He was always complaining that they were uncomfortable, and I couldn't believe how dumb it was to wear something that not only looked stupid but hurt, too. I endured the pre-shredded jeans era with grim determination. More recently, I have persevered through the revival of bell bottoms. All the while, I asked myself, "I don't *get* this. What is wrong with me?"

This is the younger generation's way of paying the older back for all the flak and stress they give them: offer themselves as targets of ridicule, so their elders can take a break from the stresses of the day with a hearty laugh at someone else's expense.
