Back in my day... - General

Back in my day everything was on floppy disk. Windows 3.1 came on 7 floppy disks and I still have them on my desk.

back in the day if I wanted to record something on TV I had to be there and record it on tape. That's how I got most of my old VHS collection. 2-hour Rugrats marathon, you will be mine forever.

Back in my day if two people were fighting and one pulled a shank, the other would pull a nokia phone and you'd see everyone run because you knew shit was going [I]down.[/I]

Back in my days, it didn't matter what you got for birthday present or christmas present, you were happy about that you got anything at all. Back in my days, you were happy about people liking you personally, not get a like on facebook Back in my days, cartoons were good.

In my days, this type of Ice Cream is popular in Western Canada. [img]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kdeNlEofYc4/TinD0ACxbDI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/sU7FBeg76XU/s1600/TwistCone2.jpg[/img]

Back in my day, sticks, boxes and the local woods was all you ever needed. We didn't need phones, or computers or expensive entertainment systems to have fun. Wow, i really sound like a grouchy old grump, but i guess that's what this thread is for.

I had heard that kinder managed to make an US version of their eggs, but I guess it was just that. If it tastes the same then I guess there's no issue, though knockoffs almost never do That reminds me (also, staying on topic) of the times when I was a kid and wanted some oreos/chocolate/any other candy, and my mom only had the cheap knockoff ones that tasted nothing like the original ones :v:

[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;41430345]doesnt beat [t]http://kimsulli.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/08_kinder_egg.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] We used to have this back in my preschool days they stopped putting them in shops for some reason but it got resurrected recently except its gotten more expensive and overall not worth it. [IMG]http://www.popuw.com/images/prince100.gif[/IMG] except it was in black and white ahh i miss the old ancient computer days. looks like windows has come a long way.

Back in my day, we used Dos for every game, and my favourite game was Demon Blue.

Back in my day, roleplaying on Diablo 1 chatrooms was cool.

Back in my day... We had PS1, not this PS3 bullshit that everyone's been talking about.
