cookie_monster Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 A kid comes in and i'm listening to Blur Song 2, she says whats this and i'm saying it's Song 2 a modern classic how can you not know it. It then dawns on me that she wasn't born when it was released
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Growing old (even when your young!) such doesn't it! I'm 26 this year, my girlfriend is 21. I made a reference to Thundercats the other day and she looked blank at me! (Now you're all gonna look blank at me too aren't ya!)
ICT_GUY Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I loved thunder cats. By the power of Jaga... Sword of Omens, come to my hand. I, Lion-O, Lord of the Thundercats, command it!
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 That theres fightin' talk Mr! Although I have to say I liked original He-Man too (not the remake they did in the mid 90's tho - shocking!)

New animated film out in 2010 (if it's on schedule!).... I dont care if it's sad, I'll be the first to buy it when it goes straight to DVD!
cookie_monster Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 I love thunder cats but I can appreciate someone not knowing it, I couldn't deal with someone not knowing The Real Ghostbusters though
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I love thunder cats but I can appreciate someone not knowing it, I couldn't deal with someone not knowing The Real Ghostbusters though And the amazing Commador 64 game that came after it!
ICT_GUY Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 And the amazing Commador 64 game that came after it! cpc464 ftw!
DMcCoy Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 And the amazing Commador 64 game that came after it! I believe I still have this on 5 1/2" for the C64
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 cpc464 ftw! Green screen, Methalated Spirit handy to clean the tape heads, beautiful programming language... lol where did those days go?! 10 cls 20 print "I love BASIC!" 30 return to 20

I still look ay my ZX Spectrum now and again - the nostalgia of mispent youth!
Hawkeyez Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Ahhh the Yellow Pages in Spectrum Monthly... the hours wasted..... The loading of games from tape... start it off, and leave the room (just in case...) ... only to come back, and it failing...
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 "return to"? Pah, what's wrong with GOTO? Damn I should have known that.... For years I had issues if I was writing the words "go" and "to" next to eachother in a sentance - I'd give directions in BASIC speak!
p858snake Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I'm young enough to know what MMPR and Captain Planet as well as still being freaked out by being called MR as it makes me sound old. 1
pmassingham Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Who remembers Prestel? Nope -it is not a sweetie made by Mars! 1
mb2k01 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Who remembers Prestel? Nope -it is not a sweetie made by Mars! I remember when Milky Way tasted like Flytes (which I dont think are sold anymore now either!) I also remember REAL Ready Salted Squares made by Smiths (often with free glass inside), and Tubes and Loops (a cross between Squares and Hoola Hoops!) MMPR rocked - Green Ranger all the way... and then White a bit later!
localzuk Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Good god, you lot are ancient. This has put my fear of being 25 at ease
