You complained about the first time the US was in Iraq... (stealing yours metacide)

You might be old if you remember having to walk places as a kid.

You might be old if you didn't visit forums growing up.

If you thought commander keen had revolutionary graphics.

If you used a computer with a monochrome monitor.

If you drove a vehicle with a carburetor.

If you've argued with your children that Transformers and G.I.Joe are NOT new and that you played with them when you were a kid.

If you remember when the first Zork was named Dungeon, or if you even played it when it was first released.

As a reminder folks, Religion and Politics are things that we don't discuss here at the ville. There are other forums for that so try to keep it out of here. So while things may seem like a harmless mention, please reserve it for the proper place.


You might be old if you remember ROOFCUTTER making posts like that.
