I remember when . . . candy was cents, not dollars and cents.
 
there wasn't such a thing as Nintendo. Or PS, or X-box for that matter. good days.
 
Gas was $1.50 a gallon and it was considered a treat to go to McDonalds
 
Most of us weren't members here.
 
the internet didn't exist
 
We woke up early to watch saturday morning cartoons
 
When the main characters on this forum were almost entirely different to what they are now

Zen Cat, Antonia dodge where'd you go?

*cries*
 
I remember when having a computer made you the rich kid in class. Also, it was 1/1000th as powerful as the one I'm on now, and cost 10x more.
 
skinny jeans were in... the first time... and they weren't called skinny jeans. And they usually had bows or zippers on the back of them.

If you wanted to know the lyrics to a song you had to tape it off the radio, and sit there with a notebook, writing down all the lyrics, pausing it, rewinding it, all that fun stuff.

you had to unlock your car the old fashioned way, with the key. LOL

ROFL! I did that all the time as a teen.

I remember rotary phones, and listening to time and temperature endlessly, for no good reason.

And typewriters that clacked and clicked and dinged. I loved those old typewriters. Heck, I just love typewriters, God bless 'em.

Remember when we had to hunt animals with spears and live in caves and sleep ontop of boulders under the starry night sky? Those were the days! =D
