Tavern Forums

I can imagine my kids calling me old for using some of these lines. Feel free to add your own.

Can you tape that for me (instead of recording).

When I was young, there was no internet

Back when I used to play games, there weren't tutorials or save points, you sat down and you played until the end!!

We used to make calls with our cell phones

If you missed that one episode in your anime series you were shit out of luck. You had to wait for the tv station to re-run it and figure out what date would line up with the episode you missed.

Every week we would get this little magazine called a tv guide...

It used to take less then a minute to scan alll 20 channels on our tv, they were still better then the thousands you have today.

They used to have shuttles go up into space. I watched two of them blow up.

I've always had the internet..

Pluto was a planet when I was a kid.

20 YEARS FROM NOW... shit im already getting backlash from some of the stuff I say that I used to do!!

Yeah you're a bit on the older half of the tavern's scale

Don't worry though nalot has you beat, I think he has gray hair

That Pluto one was good.

Me - "When I was your age I bought a 1GB usb memory stick, and it cost 40 bucks!"
Kid - "....the price of an apple?"
Me - "Back then, you could buy a whole BAG for 40 bucks!"

I bet the most interesting things will be telling them that I remember the first re-release of Star Wars. I'm sure in 20 years time GL will have added some more retarded junk to the originals that he "just couldn't add due to technology restraints originally".

"There was a thing called rap"

"People used to live in Africa"

"NASA actually used to get enough money to send people to the moon!" - if anyone here was around in 1972, I'm guessing no one will bother for the next 20 years.

Damn that's a good one.

When I was a kid, we could fix our games by just blowing air on them.

When i was a kid we had a 56k connection for the internet.

When i was a kid a gigabyte harddrive was big!

Your mum.
