    Any 30 somethings who used the word processor with the blue screen as a kid & actually know how to use a rotary phone?

    Me! Me! And ours had a turbo button that made pacman and Tetris really fast!!

    Green screen? Turbo button? I missed this!!
    What about apple fruit roll-ups & popels (that stuffed animal that turned inside out & you tucked the tail in & you could whip it at your sister)?

    Sigh....ahh the memories

    Ugh I always felt like dos was swearing at me when I searched for something and all I got was bad command or file name (I always read it as foul name and ended up screaming "You're a foul name" at my computer)

    I'll be 32....cough....
    At the end of this month. I'm not sure how that happened.
    All this sports talk and I'm sitting here with no tv. Sorry not a sports gal.

    Hahaha! ! Was it Oregon trail? Damn scarlet fever or whatever the hell killed 'em.

    When I was in my 20s, I got rid of everything I had as a kid. Who needs this pillow person? This Jem doll with light up earrings? This purple poppel......
    Now.....I actually think I yelled at my mom for turning our rotary phone into a 6th grade science project without my consent
