Things that age you

MNgirl326

So i am with my neice today and i was watching her play a computer game and i remember the game Oregon Trail.  I remember i played that game for hours and everyone I know played it...but now it is gone.  I tried telling my neice about it and she just stared at me blankly and was like, "what is so fun about that?"

so it makes me wonder, are there things that you remember from you childhood, that when you talk about it, people who are younger than you look at you like you are crazy? does it ever make you feel old and out of touch?

First I have to say that Oregon Trail is available to play still, it is available on the iphone, I kid you not.  Yes, when I try to explain things to my boss's kids that I did as a kid I realize that it was a long time ago and they just don't get why that would be entertaining.  I can only imagine how that will go over with my son and hopefully other child.

I love that game and I am totally going to try and get it on my iphone!! 

I can't think of anything that really ages me except for when I go to people's graduations and I think about the fact that I have been out of HS for 6 years!  I never thought it would go by so quickly!!  I always wondered why people said to me "you are growing up too fast," but now I use that phrase when I see kids that I babysat when they were newborns!!

I can't believe I've been out of HS for 5 years!!! Kids that I helped with in 1st grade are now going into Jr High! Unreal!

I showed DH the OT game and we're playing it together now. He was so giddy when I showed it to him.

I don't need other people's kids to make me feel old, I have been out of HS for 10 yrs...so now I officially feel old.

I just had my 10 year HS reunion...I feel old. And the other night at work someone said something about CCR and this girl I work with said "What's CCR?" We were like "You know, Credence Clearwater Revival." She then got this dumbfounded look on her face and said "What's that?"

I wanted to die.

OK this is the best one. So my sister (in her 20s) has an old VW Bug and she was driving one one of her youth group kids home (preteen) and the girl looks at the window roll up/down knob and says, "what's that?!"

LMAO! that will age you
