The old guy thread!

[CrackerTeg]

well I was born in 85 (makes me 28) I came to America in 96! That's when I got a little job and shit and started buying stuff/living life. I had zero material items back home... My toys were had carved by my grandpa lol!

Dude, hand carved toys are bad ass! I'd use them to clock my brother over the head if he pissed me off. Sadly, I had to use whatever toy was handy or just punch him in the face. Whichever my mood dictated at the moment.

I saved up every penny from making pretzels at the outlet mall to afford such a badass phone

Know the feels. When that phone came out, I think I was rocking some Nextel brick because Nextel was the shit back in the day.

Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em on the Walkman. I used to listen to that on the walk to school and bust through the door shouting, "I AM SO FUCKING PUMPED FOR STORY TIME YOU CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE IT!"

Okay, maybe not. I do remember that those damn headphones with the metal band across the top would always try to pull out my hair, though.

[Average_Jerk]

Yeah? So are you.

damn! I totally am.

Not sure if it was a NC/east coast thing but anyone remember the "skated" wheels fad in the early-mid 90's?

Much like the "stanced" fad today...........

Where you ran negative offset wheels (which in those days in the US a 15" wheel aftermarket was about the biggest wheel offered) and the wheels stuck out several inches from the fenders?

Oh yeah. Still going strong in certain parts of Charlotte.

Seriously?

I've seen all the stanced stuff riding around up here but where the 15x8 -10 offset and there is no attempt to "stance". The wheels/tires literally stick out 6" or so past the fenders..........

Not just the east coast, this was my car in the PNW about 20 years ago.



And those cell phones were huge upgrades compared to my first one, when the best plan available was $40 a month for 30 minutes. Yep, I'm fucking old.

My first phone when I was 18. It was prepaid and I had to buy it myself. My parents got my little sister her first phone when she was 12 :/

If I treated my smart phone the way I treated this beast, it wouldn't have lasted a week.
