Are you old enough to have done the following?
 

A) typed a report for school on a typewriter
B) dialed a rotary telephone
C) peeled the aluminum foil off of your TV dinner cooked in a oven
D) played Rock em Sock em Robots

yes, yes, yes, and yes.

1) what's a type writer? o.O
2) wow! rotary engines in a phones?!?!?
3) like... left overs?
4) which game system was that one? X-box? PS2? Gamecube?

Sadly yes. I'm old enough to remember when Pacman was a big thing.

so... i'm guessing many of you were around when t_g_farrell's SA rolled off the show room floor...

I was there when they invented forum spammers...

Glad I'm not the only one to find this odd for a first post LOL.

I also find it odd even for a spammer though. What is the point?

may be a spammer...but still fun!

Remember pogs? ?

I had one of the first video games ever made, PONG.

Anyway, didn't realize it was a spammed post. Oh well.

Duck Hunt, Nintendo! :icon_tup: :icon_tup:

Yes to all of the above.... And I had the ORIGINAL Rock em Sock em robots, where all the KO noises made were purely mechanical - no electronic sound effects like the ones my kids had!

lets just say that when i started driving, gas was like .68/gal. and my first video game console as a kid was the atari 2600.

a quick search revealed this site on current values:

I never had a video game console, but I do recall waiting in LOOOONG lines during the 1st gas crisis (Carter administration) to buy some of that $0.68 per gallon gas!

I saw this when it was 1st posted and thought the same thing about forum spam. but did not see any links and decided to let it play out.
