REMEMBER WHEN the only thing you had to worry about during a day is making sure your homework was done?
For some of you - you're still going through that, whether it be college (university), or high school (primary school) - so you don't know what's actually waiting for you out there.... *evil Laugh* muah-ahahahahahaha!!!!

er... yeah. never mind.

Ha, I remember when AOL use to send out disks for a month of free internet...then I would format them and use it to store my homework.

Jeez, remember when a 3.2gb hard drive was enough to boot off of, play some cheap games, and store your homework. Now that'll barely be enough to even install 1 game or store your family photos from a 12mp camera.

Remember when ZIP drives where around. I use to carry one to school to take advantage of their high speed during off hours to grab music...100mb of storage in a package 3x the thickness of floppy. Made it easier to store my project Power Points for school too, all the other stupid saps had to make several projects to store on several different floppy disks then hope and pray the crappy drive doesn't pull the damn plate off.

Remember when the toy surprises used to actually be cool toys and not chinsy little crap-tastic little toys?

Yes, I'm bitter. I used to love hunting for those little toys.

REM when all gas stations were full service and had occasional seasonal fun stuff for sale like McD's Happy Meal toys. Now prices are almost 10x higher, self serve, with only 1 or 2 attendants.

Remember when people actually knew how to type out real words, using correct grammar and punctuation, and didn't walk around spouting LOL crap all day...

Also, REM when Duck Tales was the reason to run home after school!
