Yea, I figured I would keep it in context of the 80's with a little of the lingo from back then. ;) lol

I really love how 'kids' of that age can't figure out how we survived without much of the electronic gizmos and technology back then that we have now. Really gets a good laugh out of them when I say that I remember 8-track tapes too. ;)

| now this has turned into a teen bashing thread boo - hoo |
A teen bashing thread??? lol Nah, we're not bashing teens. Just pointing out how some teens of today, don't know alot of what you posted. Plus, the 80's to me, was a cool time in pop culture back then.
Hands Rob a kleenex ;) It's gonna be ok. :D
Just wait until you get to be around our ages, alot of things that you know of now, probably will be almost non-existent, or even bigger and better than now. You too will think teens have missed out on something cool from the past. ;)

Thank you for that, trinibabidoll!! I wish more women (and men too!) would believe this way. My boss dies his hair every few months and it looks so ridiculous. He looks so much more dignified with his white hair.
I earned the lines on my face, thankyouverymuch. And I survived the 80's (hehehehee)

Born Before 1985? Then You Are...
I was living in Alaska when it became a state. I was 9 years old. I watched as the 2 engine planes dropped confetti over the islands and heard the air raid sirens going and saw the people in the streets jumping and running screaming happily. Not too many people can say they were there when a new state was born. I remember when a loaf of bread was $ .19 cents, a candy bar was $ .05 cents. I remember when not everyone owned a TV and when there were only a very few channels. It is so cool to remember things that the 'new' generations haven't learned about yet!

Born 1985 You Are... - Page 2
I was around when Beatniks were cool, remember Dobie Gillis? And I had a reel to reel player not an 8track. In Jr. High school we sock-hopped to 45 and 78's. Listened to Petula Clark croon out to Dear Sir. I wouldn't trade my youth for anything. Romance was truly romance back then. The songs made sense, they told a story and you could look at your partners face when you danced with him. And I still prefer most movies to be in black and white. Gives your imagination a chance to really work!

Born 1985 You Are... Psychology Special & Health - Page 2
I may be born in 1987....but i know what most of those are. My dad has a record player still and like 100 records. We never listen to em because i generally don't like the music he likes...There are some things i've never experienced like not having a remote and only 13 channels but alot of my friends that are my age only have 3 channels (they live on farms) so count yourself lucky. 
Sadly, we don't learn about tianemen or the gulf war. We only learn about Russia and the cold war. Her ein Canada, basically if it doesn't have to do with us we don't learn it.
