Author Topic: When I was a kid...  (Read 3120 times)

A lot of the generation ahead of me have been posting stuff on Facebook like

"When I was a kid I didn't have an XBox or Wii, there was this thing called a Lite-Brite. My curfew was the street lights and mom didn't call my cell, she yelled "time to come in". I played outside with friends, not online. If I didn't eat what my mom made me then I didn't eat. Hand sanitizer didn't exist, but you COULD get your mouth washed out with soap. Re-post if you drank water out of a hose and survived..."   

 I replied with

   "Don't you hate the "When I was a kid I didn't have... so so " Unfortunately we are not the same generation as you, therefore we like different stuff. I'm sure that, if you were a kid and you had the same stuff we had today, you would be the same way."

I wonder what the generation before my parent's had to say. Probably something along the lines of

"When I was a kid, we didnt have garden hoses to drink from. My mom didnt call us into eat, we were lucky to get a meal. We had a curfew but no streetlights, so if we got lost in the dark, we stayed out there till morning. What the heck is a 'lite-brite'.

Please feel free to add on to the last generation one. =D

the current generation is the reason I stay cooped up in my house on my computer. and why I would rather kill myself then go to my public school. uggghhh.

whenever I read about people's past, it makes me all sad. "aw that person had a great childhood and now has to live in this terrible time, aw."

When I was a kid, we didn't have oxygen.


Back in my day, we didn't have any of them silly space cruisers, all we had were flying cars!

When I was a kid, we didn't have kids.

When I was a kid, us trilobites had to fend off predators and fight for our food!



Your 14 your still a kid....

When I was a kid, we didn't have kids.
:O
Your 14 your still a kid....
What does that have to do with anything?I know Im 14. Lol My 14 what? :O

I don't understand, why do previous generations state what they didn't have? Technological progression is bad?

When I was a kid, my mother would send me down to the corner store with a nickel, and I’d come back with
five pounds of potatoes,
two loaves of bread,
three packs of juices,
packets of chocolates & candies

You can’t do that now.





















Too many loving security cameras!

Your 14 your still a kid....

Apparently yes. Maybe we're getting to smart for them.
