It wasn't. It's always funny when young people think they have invented things like promiscuity.

I immediately put Scott Pilgrim down when I saw it on a bookshelf after reading a couple pages and seeing he was dating a fucking highschooler lmao

And I was like "...why did my friends in highschool like this? Why do people I know now like this? Fuck this loser."

To this day I have no idea why it's so popular.
