(don’t worry, no dodgy ghosts from DIS past here)
This is an astute observation communicated very well.

We used to say it ironically as kids when reminiscing about ok times and kind of boring people but we’d say “good times, good people”. Early 00s were still ironic times I think.

I’d like to clarify that I know the song and not the words, so what I actually sang to myself was “Der Der Der Good Times”.
I sometimes say good times, but in an ironic way, when the times being had that I recall were actually, not that good a time. Thanks
Pretty sure the lyrics are ‘these are not good times’
It does appear to combine the bard with ‘humour’.
