....does it make you feel old when these little punks ask questions like "what would the world be like without the internet?" I'm not even 30 yet and I'm like, holy cow there are people out here using the internet that have no memory of when it did not exist!! Or cell phones? Anyone else?

Yes, I feel old (only 26). I've already caught myself using phrases like "those kids" ha ha. But yes, I remember when we had to go to a friends house to get on the Net and then we could only be on there for a little bit because they had to pay an hourly rate!! I was just watching on TV about the old cell phones. The ones that were HUGE and like a big box. I had an old "car" phone thru and old job once, and I had to put the antenna up on the top of the car and it was like in a briefcase looking thing hooked up to a wire, I don't know, but it seems ancient now!! LOL.

(in a hoarse voice) Back in my day, we didn't have all these new-fangled deevices. Why if we wanted to change the channel, we had to get off our butts and walk to the TV and spin the dial! Had a rotary phone, too! If we had to write a paper for school, we had to got to the library and read books! Why, we didn't even get color TV until I was 10! We never would have believed things like DVD, X-Box,Cell Phones, cable TV,and hand held calculaters! A computer in our house woulda took up an entire room! Why you kids got it easy! LOL

It doesn't make me feel old.
However, I do remember being like 18 when I got a cell phone. Now kids have them. That just seems so weird to me! I don't know why a kid needs a cell phone. lol

OK guys when I was a kid not everyone had a TV and if you did your choices were 3 fuzzy black and white channels. All the channels went off the air at ten o'clock at night first they played the national anthem then static till 6 am. Sometimes a thing called a test pattern [ remember those]

I'm 19 but yeah it does get annoying. I was probably the first out of my friends to ever have a computer even if it was very basic but now a days everyone relies on them ... wouldn't it be a shame if the internet wasn't there one day ... awwwww.

No, but I am always intrigued to see how "the olden days" are relative. I can recall my parent's talking about spending Saturday at the films for $.05 and what a treat that was. By then they thought it was extravagance to take us out to pizza every other Friday. (And Pong was the rage! I'm 47, for a few more weeks)

I'm fifty and my son asked me what cell phones were like when I was his age. Are you kidding? I asked my mother a question like that about television when she was a kid. Same deal. I guess kids just figure things have always been like they are now.
