You know you are old when...

You complain about this Ipod thing and wish that people buy more CDs.
You know you're old when someone plays an old skool mix and you have several of the songs on cassette

You know your old when kids ask you what a cassette is.

You know you're even older when you then go on to talk about 8-tracks and records first before even getting around to explaining what a cassette is.

You know you're old when you remember cranking a phonograph before listening to your awesome big band music!

LOL coulda done well in the Random LOL of the Day thread too!

My family had some long time friends of the family over last night, and we were just hanging out. The two sons of my mothers friend are guys i've known since they were pretty much born, so when i introduce them to people i just introduce them as "cousins" to make it easier. How does this relate to this thread?

Well, you know you're old when you're sitting around having a few hard drinks with kids you had to babysit.. damn.

The sad thing is even I can remember a time when all of that stuff were true.

Kraken and Sniper are under 20. Haven't seen Sniper in a while, though.

There are a few others but they've slipped my mind.

I know what you mean. Kid's that were in middle school when I was a youth leader are full grown adults and taller than me. Makes me all emotional when I think of them all grown up.

It's also disturbing when your good friend's kid sister is grown up and she is attractive. Very disturbing and uncomfortable.

Maxi must be, like, 8. So adorable.

I do know how you feel though. When I joined I was 17 and I was definitely not ready for this place.

I think MysticSpike is under 20.

I suppose I am young at heart.
I'm probably one of the oldest on the site. I think 3 or 4 people are older than me.

DAMMIT! I know i replied to this yesterday because i sent you a PM right after this, but it never went thru...

Anyway i was pointing out I only just turned 23 a month ago and am only a year older than YOU so LOL

Luckily I haven't been thru that because hardly any of my friends have sisters, or at least not ones i see frequently enough. However, it was pretty awkward when I came of that age to start noticing girls, in that sense, and realized my best friends sister was pretty damn hot.. Now its even weirder cuz i've known this guy and his family since kindergarten so she's almost like family now. I run into her every now and again because we work in the same city, and I feel like a redneck with "hot-cousin" issues.

On the topic of age.. I never really noticed till now that there are few members here under 20 (that post regularly at least) and to be honest.. I kinda like it this way. We're all mature and respectful of eachother (when we want to be) here and the last thing I'd wan't is for some bratty 12 year old to troll every thread with l33t speak or whatever. Granted, not every teenager is like that and i'm sure there are plenty of younger gamers out there that are knowledgeable on gaming before the PSX era.. but when you see other things out there on the internet, it makes you a lil biased against them.

Anyway, I don't want this to turn into some debate about whether or not age always equals maturity (cuz even here we see it doesn't), i'm merely stating my opinion that we've got a pretty kick ass community here. NWR R0x0rz!

I just looked up Maxi's age... I seriously thought he was 16 or something.

I have friends that look the same age, or older than me, yet I'm much older than them. It's a curse in my opinion.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #88 on:** July 23, 2009, 10:49:02 AM »

Might I ask why you thought I was 16?

You sound kinda young too, but i'm assuming Caliban has never heard your voice.

Caliban · « **Reply #91 on:** July 23, 2009, 10:52:38 AM »

I haven't heard his voice, but when he started posting on the forums, I really did think he was a youngster.

Do you have Wii Speak Caliban? Maybe you can hear me in The Conduit.

I never thought that by the way he posts, i always just thought he was a bit robot-like lol. I've discussed this with him before, so i'm not trying to sound mean or anything.

Caliban · « **Reply #94 on:** July 23, 2009, 11:04:43 AM »

I do have Wii Speak.

Sure, "but when he started posting on the forums, I really did think he was a youngster".

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #95 on:** July 23, 2009, 11:08:47 AM »

I guess I do appear to be young despite my age.

NWR_DrewMG · « **Reply #96 on:** July 23, 2009, 11:38:25 AM »

Maxi, I might be older than you. When's your birthday? If it's before 12/1 then you're older than me.

Actually I just remembered that isn't so true. I played The Conduit with Maxi, and we did have our Wii Speak mic working. Although I couldn't really pick up his voice good enough for my ears that are wonky when it comes to sounds that aren't crisp and perfectly recognizable.

Well I will try to speak clearer for the Conduit Wi-Fi night.

I will commit your birthday to my memory, only because it is so easy to remember (a day before my own). We're both cancers, huzzah!
