Remember when it was the styrofoam containers holding your big mac that cost .89 cents?

Remember when you ordered at McDonalds you didnt have to speak spanish?

Remember when getting to work did not involve that extra 45 minutes of traffic?

Remember when kids actually obeyed thier parents?

1. The quarter pounder w/cheese's have never been the same since they stopped using styrofoam containers. I really miss them.

2. Mary ann all the way... I live in Kansas

3. Don't get me started on catering to non english in this country.
(Our forfathers would be ashamed.)

4. 400 + Channels, And I just just flip and flip and flip. That is just wrong.

Remember when there were no cell phones. (I don't have one and I really don't ever want one)

Remember rotary phones. (my last one finally died this year, bummer)

Remember when you had to get your fat, lazy, ***** of the couch to change the channel. (I don't miss that)

Remember when rock & roll was actually played on top 40 radio stations. (And I don't mean the crap you hear today)

Rich250RRacer
09-05-2005, 09:29 PM
One more, remember when people actually went out and bought records, cassettes, or even CD's. Not just downloading a song or two from the internet. Then discovering there's alot more than just one good song on that record.

09-05-2005, 09:30 PM
you talking about good rock. the likes of the doors, led zep, pink floyd, hendrix anyone who listens to this kinda stuff definatly has experienced some crazy stuff if ya know what i mean.

i remember not having a cell phone. even better what about the 30 pound ones that had to be plugged into the car the whole time and you needed a bag to carry them in.
i still have a rotary phone at my moms house. there always fun when your trying to make a phone call in a hurry

I remember when people didn't want to sue you for anything and everything. When gas was 1 dollar a gallon. When the 8bit nintendo was cool. When having anything motorized was cool, and kids had to buy there own stuff. And nobody said that they were going to get there cousing from the city after you. Or ther going home to get there nine to shoot your ***.

One of the nicer things of today is the way women dress, but its hard to tell with the way some of the younger girls are built. Wish they wouldn't dess and look like that until they hit 18. Another nice new age thing is the way they shave there private parts, and sun tan:p Skimpier undies are cool now too. But the boy shorts gotta go. Keep the femanin shape under the pants and skirts.

Thought I'd add some humor to the thread. Not sure if its in good taste or not though.:confused:

Atari was the greatest thing ever.

How about going to the movie store to rent movies and a VCR :eek:

Remember them big 5 1/4 inch floppy drives, and the computers didn't have a hard drive? You usually had to load MSDOS into RAM first, and then remove it and load up your computer game.

Wow ... you're not just old ... you're ancient !!! ;) Just joking with you .

I remember In the early 90s , a note was sufficient enough for me to go buy smokes for my mom .... now you almost have to give them a blood sample along with 6 pieces of I.D just to buy a damn loto ticket . :ermm:

A comb ?? What's that ?? :confused:

I haven't used a comb in many many years ... heck I don't even own a comb . My hair goes from the shower into my hat . If I need my hair all fancy , I use a little bit of hair gel and my fingers ... saved me $1.99 from having to buy a comb . :D :blah:

Remember when you could ride down a township road and not see a no tresspassing sign every 50 feet. The farmers didnt care where you rode as long as you didnt tear up thier hay and chase thier cows. The farmers around me was cool back in the day some would let us make a path through the edge of thier hayfields along the tree line and make gate where we needed them in thier fences. I never needed a car when I was a teenager I could ride my quad to anywhere I wanted to go and never touch a main rode, and Im talking the bigger towns around me that are up to 20 miles away. I didnt ride much in the last ten years, and when I bought the new quad I took a ride to see how many of my old trails I could ride on. Well I found out real quick that the farmers around me found no tresspassing signs. I went and asked about riding and was told no due to law suits. If you get hurt youll sue me for everything I have. Oh remember when lawyers didnt ruin riding and nobody worried about being sued. Darn ambulance chasers anyway!

Remember them big 5 1/4 inch floppy drives, and the computers didn't have a hard drive? You usually had to load MSDOS into RAM first, and then remove it and load up your computer game. [/B][/QUOTE]

I remember when dad bought home our first computer, The commodor Vic 20, I think they still have it.

Remember when the thundercats ruled thundera every day after school.
