Ask Lemmy

Elvis and I were alive at the same time.

I still feel shy when buying beer

My first modem was 2400 baud.

Younger than the iphone 👶

I was still a kid when my dad brought home a brand new Apple II. Before that computer appeared in his home office (and in my live, as I used that Apple so much more than he ever did ;)), I learned to type on my granddad's typewriter.

I watched the Challenger disaster on the wheelie TV cart

I had Empire Strikes Back bed Sheets

I still call them Opel Fruits

The first time i typed a paper for school i used a typewriter. The last time i wrote a paper for school i used Openoffice.

I remember watching TV as a kid and deciding that, when I grow up, I want to be just like:

A) Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman,

B) that hot Mountie from Due South, and

C) The Littlest Hobo

First manned space flight.

I watched cartoons on Saturday morning and Davey & Goliath on Sunday.

Much of my childhood was spent watching BAMZOOKi and Jungle Run on CBBC.

Men used to wear booty shorts and belly shirts like some women do today; if they bothered with a shirt at all publicly and it was all 100% A OKAY; abs/pecs or not

I started using computers on windows 10 (I am now a proud Kubuntu user)

I don’t remember where I was on 9/11 but I was drinking a lot back then so that doesn’t say much.
