  • Too much Lou Reed is an aged-worst choice; the early script reportedly used Neil Young, which would not improve the music for the objector.
  • The Scarlet V expression has aged poorly as an unfamiliar relic rather than an offensive phrase.
  • Joel’s rejection for being Jewish and the unsuccessful Jack Black-like music character are other aged-worst selections.
  • Using homophobic and disability slurs for jokes is identified as conspicuous and dated.
