I was in middle school when I got an n64 for Christmas.
I still feel shy when buying beer
Old.
I'm barely still a Millenial. Which is kind of cool. I don't like the "generation names" before or after that much, and I liked that I grew up with non-invasive tech and non-existent smartphones during school. I was able to grow up with tech but none of the tech I dislike today. Also, tech was still easier to understand back then. I was able to learn how to create web sites for example when HTML, CSS, JavaScript and CGI was still in its infancy and not very complex yet. Of course I learned the growing complexitty as it all developed but the point is that it kind of grew with me. Which probably made several things easier to get into in the first place. Also, I still grew up with almost forgotten values such as privacy, and my whole youth life (as well as dumb things you did when young) isn't available online and therefore "gone". I kind of like it that way.
My first gaming console was N64 and I remember my parent's paid 700 USD for our 2 bedroom apartment in decent area.
My first computer was a Sinclair
TVs have a UHF switch so I can finally watch more channels. I really hate putting tinfoil on the rabbit ears and opening the window to sometimes get these new channels though, but they work better if I hold onto the antenna. It's hard to see what I'm watching if I do this, but at least I can mostly hear what they're saying, and the picture is dark anyway, so even if I could see at this angle, it would be too dark and snowy.
My first 7" single was Slade-Far far away
Vic-20, Atari 600 XL, zx-81.
In that order
You could only get B&W Tvs at the store.
I was sixteen days old when the world ended and we were all thrown back into the stone age.
When I'd get to kindergarten too early, the teacher let us watch some cable tv. It was usually showing the original xmen cartoon.
you are in idiot, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haaa
Grif:
It's one of life's great mysteries isn't it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence, or is there really a God watching everything? You know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don't know, man, but it keeps me up at night.
Simmons:
...What?! I mean why are we out here, in this canyon?
