Liar. For you, it was rotate the antenna pole or crinkle the foil.

Me, turn the knob and crinkle the foil.

Those came after I turned the knob...had to get the channel before adjusting the antenna...

I'm sorry you had rabbit ears...those rarely worked as well as a food antenna. :p

Realizing I'm twice the age of a high school senior. And single. But I honestly feel no different than I did in my early 20s, so I guess that's good. Still though, fml

Realizing that some of the high school girls(from Lincoln High School,not too far from campus) I see around downtown Portland,OR
(I'm working at Portland State University)
are young enough that I could be their dad if I'd started young enough.

I'm 36,just FYI.

Nobody graduating high school this year was born in the 1990's.

Seinfeld's first season was 30 years ago.

Facebook is 15 years old this year.

The iPhone is 12 years old.

The Harry Potter movies started 22 years ago.

The CBS TV show Survivor has been on for 19 years.

We're now closer in time to the 2038 collapse of the universe than we are to the Y2K collapse of the universe.

How did you manage to keep the same E-mail address for that long?

I hear you. A friend of mine's daughter has grown up to be an attractive young woman and I noticed that, then wait a minute I've known her since she was four years old...:eek:
