Do you find what you need? Look here!
Question: A Joke for you, How funny is this?
For the over 30 Crowd!!!!!!!!!
How true!!!
THE SPOILED UNDER-30 CROWD!!!
If you are 30 or older you will think this is hilarious!!!!
When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears
with their tedious diatribes about how hard things
were when they were growing up; what with walking
twenty-five miles to school every morning . uphill
BOTH ways. Yadda, yadda, yadda……….
And I remember promising myself that when I grew up,
there was no way in hell I was going to lay a bunch
of crap like that on kids about how hard I had it
and how easy they’ve got it! But now that… I’m
over the ripe old age of thirty, I can’t help but
look around and notice the youth of today. You’ve
got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood,
you live in a damn Utopia!
And I hate to say it but you kids today you don’t
know how good you’ve got it! I mean, when I was a
kid we didn’t have The Internet. If we wanted to
know something, we had to go to the damn library and
look it up ourselves, in the card catalog!!
There was no email!! We had to actually write
somebody a letter with a pen! Then you had to
walk all the way across the street and put it in the
mailbox and it would take like a week to get there!
There were no MP3′s or Napsters! You wanted to steal
music, you had to hitchhike to the damn record store
and shoplift it yourself!
Or you had to wait around all day to tape it off the
radio and the DJ’d usually talk over the beginning
and @#*% it all up!
We didn’t have fancy crap like Call Waiting! If you
were on the phone and somebody else called they got
a busy signal, that’s it!
And we didn’t have fancy Caller ID Boxes either!
When the phone rang, you had no idea who it was! It
could be your school, your mom, your boss, your
bookie, your drug dealer, a collections agent, you
just didn’t know!!! You had to pick it up and take
your chances, mister!
We didn’t have any fancy Sony Playstation video
games with high-resolution 3-D graphics! We had the
Atari 2600! With games like ‘Space Invaders’ and
‘asteroids’ and the graphics sucked ass! Your guy
was a little square! You actually had to use your imagination! And
there were no multiple levels or screens it was just one screen
forever!
And you could never win. The game just kept getting
harder and harder and faster and faster until you
died! Just like LIFE!
When you went to the movie theater there no such
thing as stadium seating! All the seats were the
same height! If a tall guy or some old broad with a
hat sat in front of you and you couldn’t see, you
were just screwed!
Sure, we had cable television, but back then that
was only like 15 channels and there was no onscreen
menu and no remote control! You had to use a little
book called a TV Guide to find out what was on!
You were screwed when it came to channel surfing!
You had to get off your ass and walk over to the TV
to change the channel and there was no Cartoon
Network either! You could only get cartoons on
Saturday Morning. Do you hear what I’m saying!?! We
had to wait ALL WEEK for cartoons, you spoiled
little rat-bastards!
And we didn’t have microwaves, if we wanted to heat
something up.We had to use the stove or go build a
frigging fire… imagine that! If we wanted
popcorn, we had to use that stupid Jiffy Pop thing
and shake it over the stove forever like an idiot.
That’s exactly what I’m talking about! You kids
today have got it too easy. You’re spoiled.
You guys wouldn’t have lasted five minutes back in
1980!

The over 30
Crowd

Answer by highendsystems
Whew! Long but mostly true. I still love my Atari, of-course it’s an 8-bit computer (800XL) not the 2600 game console. There was no Internet as we know it today, but I did “BBS” back in the early to mid 80′s — kinda like what was seen in the movie “War Games”. Yeah, I was calling up Bulletin Board Systems at a blazing 300 baud! You could join up with CompuServe back in the day, which was the first form of Internet or platform to exchange information with others on a large scale. I’m 35 as of this writing. You forgot to mention that VCR’s ran around $ 300. Now’a days you can buy a DVD/VCR combo for $ 39 at Wal-Mart. You also forgot to mention how spoiled they are that they can skip tracks on their CD players. The only way we could skip tracks is with an ’8-track’ which were going obsolete. I suppose you could lift the needle on the LP player and place it elsewhere on the record, I scratched a few doing this. Otherwise you would have to fast forward the tape player — often stopping short of the next song, or going past the beginning of the song you want. Anyway, this was a fun blast from the past post. * 4 ya!
