When I was your age, I saw the original drawings for the TMNT, before he sold the rights.

When I was your age:

RPGs were fought on paper using dice.
Portable computers weighed about 100 pounds.
Operating systems had to be booted from a disk.
Floppy disks were actually floppy.
A gallon of gas cost less than a dollar, and you had to decide between leaded and unleaded.
Banks gave you 5% interest on savings accounts.
Kent Hrbek was the next Harmon Killebrew.
No one knew where Iraq was, and Yugoslavia was a big country.
Disney was building a cool new theme park called EPCOT.
Hurricanes were only a threat to people who built houses on the beach.
America Online made it possible for common folk to access the internet.
You had to wait about twenty minutes to get an internet connection while listening to all the high-pitched squeals of your 14K Telephone Modem.
Holding a cell phone to your ear was roughly equivalent to holding a boom box to your ear.
Disco was starting to fizzle.

American Gladiators were actually GREAT and only had 2 colors, Red and Blue.

Ken Griffey JR was still in his prime and playing for Seattle.
Rugrats were still airing old episodes.

WWE wasn't "WWE" but WWF

When I was your age, Indian always meant American Indian, rather than "from India."
When I was your age, using Indian names for sports teams was fine.
When I was your age, the only thing that was politically incorrect was the government spending $500 for a hammer.

Video games were at their golden ages with snes, genesis, and nes.
all i got for christmas was a trip by myself to the alamo and was given 10 dollars and someone wished me the best of luck (just kiddin)
Nickelodeon was the best channel to watch for a kid and had the best shows like "All That" "What would you do?", "Legends of the hidden temple", "Wild and crazy kids"(rr is gonna love me for that one lol), "Nick Arcade", "Are you afraid of the dark?" and others

When I was your age:

I changed channels by turning the dial on the TV.
The top TV shows were Gilligan's Island, Happy Days, and The Brady Bunch.
You did not want to make Bill Bixby angry.
Watching satellite TV meant that you worked for NASA.
You watched new release movies in your car with a little box hanging from your window for the audio.
Car doors had two feet of solid steel to protect you from impacts, rather than airbags.

lol i didn't say it's not cool anymore.
why i said that was when i was 6 years old i went to chimneyrock elementary school in memphis TN and i was given the name "Red Feather" cause the school's team name was "braves" so it made sense that me and my class were given indian names and i must also to mentioned i was named "Chief"
so in the words of jack sparrow:
"and then they made me their chief"

When I was your age...

Electricity was for the rich,
Westerns were everyday life,
Our "toys" were made in America and took the form of mud-pies and stick swords,
It was ok for parents to punish their children,
Bathing required a long trip to the well,
We had to read books to learn things, not run to Google,
Food was scarce,
Microwaves came from the sun,
Every sickness was treated with Castor Oil,
I had to draw new pictures in order to "change" the channel,
Children played outside from the time they woke up until bed time,
And, the best "show" to watch was the neighbors fighting.

When I was your age, we didn't have Black Ops. We played MW2 and we liked it.
