20 somethings. It's time for revenge!
Over the years I have seen numerous threads from us old geezers/boomer's about what the youth of today has never seen/has no knowledge of. Everything from candlestick telephones

to T.V. test patterns.

http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:N098XkKOPoI2HM:

We tend to be a sanctimonious bunch who think that since we have lived through a bunch of old, outdated tech crap, we are somehow superior.

Hell, some of us can remember the Dead Sea before it was even sick.

Now it's your turn. Tell us geezers what we are missing. I know about ring tones that us old farts can't hear. I don't text or tweet cause my old eyes can't see the fucking screen. What else are we missing?

Show us old fucks the world that we will never know!

1. Oh shit, I forgot. You kids are out partying while us geezers
are home watching The Thin Man on TCM.

Happy New Year!

We will be celebrating it EST even though we live in PST. We are old and need to go to bed.

7. Oh, that really hurt. Nonetheless, I declare victory!
We will forget that all the kids are out tonight! The fact that not one of them responded proves that boomer's and their culture is superior!

All hail the TRS80!

All hail three channels of television!

All hail Leslie salt and Wonder bread!
