Im sim city old. The first one.

Edit ok actually older than that.

I watched the twin towers fall but none of it connected and never gave me the fanatical patriotism it was supposed to.

I am Toy Story years old

I'm not really a zoomer but I'm also not really a millennial. (and definitely not any other generation)

I smelled like teen spirit.

I remember when Fox was a brand-new network that only broadcast during specific times of the day in my area.

If your friend could tap on your CD player without it skipping, you were cool

LOAD “*” ,8,1

The first movie I remember seeing in theaters was the Special Edition of A New Hope.

I loved Episodes I & II as a kid, but by the time Episode III rolled around I had developed enough appreciation for good screenwriting that I left the theater mildly disappointed.

Born a few months after the first moon landing. Birthday is next week.

YouTube didn't exist until after I graduated high school

“By the power of Greyskull!”

I remember playing Rollercoaster tycoon on windows 95.

My first console controller only had one button, audio cassette storage was my first pirating medium, I remember when doctors used to smoke in the examination room.

I'm older than ATX but younger than x86 architecture.

Challenger exploded on my birthday, I was in either grade 11 or 12.

I vaguely remember live tv of men walking on the moon. Not the first guy though, I’m not that old

I fought Iraq in 2003 but the first president I could vote for was Bush v Kerry.

If that doesn't do it I don't know what will.

Also, please stop reminding me how old I am.

Analog childhood, digital adulthood

All the neighborhood kids came to play Pong at my house

I remember exactly where I was & what I was doing when 9/11 happened. I was in middle school, science class, it promptly ended & we watched the live footage play on a CRT TV.

When we were kids the telephone man gave us the secret code you could use to make the phone booth phones call themselves to test the ringer. Loads of fun. I used to wake up early to watch Saturday morning cartoons. I know how to use the yellow pages, and I used to be the kid who would help you plug in and program all the old people’s tv and vcr and cable boxes. Most of the neighborhood kids had to be on by the time that one streetlight came on at dusk, but I was allowed to stay out later but usually went home too because it was boring after everyone else went home. We used to play tag football in the middle of the street and I was the wide receiver because I was the third or fourth oldest and the oldest two were always the quarterbacks. We used to all hang out at little jimmys house who was 8 or 10 years old because he had Mike Tyson’s punch out on NES. If one of our parents needed cigarettes we could walk up to buy them as long as we had a note from our mom.

I watched my Saturday morning cartoons on betamax and I had transformers g1, gijoe, and heman on all of them

Leaded gasoline, Vietnam war winding down along with Disco.

There were no TV commercials on Sunday.

I have the touch. I have the power.

my first video game was Prince of Persia on a 386 processor, my age was in the single digits

Played in the creek (pronounced crik), caught pollywogs and toads and snakes. Walked barefoot to the farm down the street to buy sweet corn. Heard stories about my uncles finding dynamite in a cave near the railroad and bringing it home and passing it around at school before the fire department confiscated it all as well as stories of my great grandma holding my great grandpa at shotgun point till he did the chore he'd said he'd get to months before. I remember the internet screaming at me when I picked up the home phone. My dad's first cell phone was a Nokia brick. The first Galaxy smart phone came out the year I graduated highschool.

My first tv was black/white and had 8 dials to tune the 8 channels.

Well, let's see.

I was alive for the bicentennial of the USA, don't remember that but do remember rotary phones. The population of the world doubled between my birth and when I was age 42.

Not sure Lemmy skews older than "the rest of the internet" though, have you ever seen Facebook?

Rainbow Brite was one of my favorite cartoons growing up.

I still have my pog collection somewhere in the basement

Retro is anything on a cartridge or tape. Disc based media is too new and space age to be retro.

Crash Bandicoot was my first game.

Did you know that it released closer to the moon landing than to today?

Maybe tomorrow I’ll want to settle down, until tomorrow I’ll just keep moving on.

I grew up with Rugrats, Hey Arnold and Doug.

I once took a Toledo Salamunca sword and cut off my own head.

Biggest crush on Winona Ryder starting in high school, when Heathers came out.

Before that, Peter Weller inspired me as hard rocking neurologist, Buckaroo Banzai.

First programming was in Pascal on a Hydra machine (reel to reel computer stack serving 30 stations).
