What makes me feel old: learning that kids don't recognize the names of famous actors I enjoyed movies from (aka Jackie Chan, Arnold Schwarzennegger), not being very interested in online multi-player games, growing up with a rotary phone, having a cell phone but almost never using it compared to everyone else, and seeing the minimum birthdate in gas stations for buying alcohol and cigs

Old: Uh... Nothing, oh wait the fact that i've spent most likely a year or two just on my computer... Yea, sure i'll go with that

[BlueStreak98 828]

Everyone born before 9/11 is old enough to drive in the United States.

I remember the first Chipotle that opened in my area.

I vividly remember playing Wolfenstein 3D on a Packard Bell computer that ran Windows 95.

I remember everyone freaking out when gas first crested $2 a gallon.

I used to occasionally watch My Little Pony Tales on Disney Channel.

I now have gray hair.
