Four posts and two comments! 50% not too bad. Hopefully that will pick up, but I guess I can only hope for so much. I realize that this isn't the coolest website in the world, with flashy pictures or cool games, But it is a simple way to get my thoughts out there. The world is way to complicated no a days. A simple outlet should help us to relax and take us back to a simpler time. No hybrid cars, HD TV, Global warming, and all that political war crap. A time when cartoons were violent, we stayed out after dark playing with the kids in the neighborhood, didn't have wear a helmet to ride a bike, Pluto was a planet, you did "good" on your test, and our parents wanted us to get the chicken pox. What the hell happened to the good old days?
I feel so old sometimes......
I don't know who half the bands on the radio are, and Alice in Chains is now "classic rock".
Kids don't know the names of the Thundercats, He-Man, GI Joe, or what the hell Pee-Wee's Playhouse is.
My pants are too tight, my hair is only one color, my shoes don't look like moonboots, and the muffler on my car is too quiet.
I mean c'mon we were never that weird.....were we?
Half the people I work with don't have any idea that you need to scream when you hear the word of the day. And I still submit that Cheetara is hot for a cartoon.
ReplyDeleteHe-Man and GIJoe made a comeback a few years ago. Plus they are making a GIJoe movie soon. So we're so old, stuff is looping back on us.

The Word of the Day was taken from "You Bet Your Life", which I'm sure had our grandparents up in arms at the time.
ReplyDeleteLion-O, Snarf, Snake Eyes, Destro... unfortunately, that's all I can remember. Think I hung out at B's house too much 5-6 years ago.
If Dane Cook and Family Guy have taught us nothing, it's that our generation is defined by our nostalgia and referential humor. Transformers, GI Joe, Thundercats, He-Man and Ranger Rick magazine will always be remembered as long as people our age are writing.
Remember when kids tee-ball teams could actually "lose" a game, and kids learned the fact that we couldn't all be winners and that is ok? my parents took me and my brothers to the neighbor kids house to expose us to chicken pox to get it over and done with. Remember before video games when you actaully had to have imagination to pass the time. ahhhh...yes, we are old!
