I thought I'd throw this in. It says the 90s, but I think most of it is still relevant.


Signs You've had Too Much of The '90s

1. Your reason for not staying in touch with family is that they do not have email addresses.

2. If you can't order it by midnight and have it delivered by noon the next day, it is just too slow.

3. Your Stockbroker's name ends in ''.com''

4. A Blind date means chatting online with someone you haven't met before.

5. Keeping up with sports means having your favorite sports teams bookmarked

6. You lecture the neighborhood kids selling lemonade on ways to improve their efficiency

7. You get all excited when it's Saturday and you can wear sweats to work.

8. You find you really need Power Point to explain what kind of work you do.

9. You normally eat out of vending machines and at the most expensive restaurant in town within the same week.

10. You apologize to your friends who didn't get holiday cards from you. “Sorry, I only sent ‘e-cards’ this year, you just didn't make the cut”

11. You think a “half-day” means leaving at 5 o'clock.

12. You get most of your jokes via email instead of in person.

Does anyone really play solitaire on the computer anymore? I recently played Freecell when the Internet was out, for the first time in over 2 years and it was strange. Like I was using a dead technology.

I do play with real cards (not often, though I do carry a deck in my bag), but it's mostly for playing poker and other games with people when we're bored.

I've played with real cards within the past two years, therefore the statement is false.

Where's "0. If you take anything shaddow says seriously," if I might ask?

I only ever play solitaire with a real deck of cards. Haven't actually played it
on a computer in a long time.

You frequently play Solitare with real cards?

I read it, Shaddow.

Now, whether I cared or not is another story...

All the myspace stuff seems sad, but probably true.

T_T The spacing was to make it so people would scroll back up if they missed 5, Thex. Did you not read it?

I don't. People take them of me, even after I refuse. I don't want my face on the internet.

I played with some real ones a couple of months ago actually. Being in Boy Scouts really gets you addicted to a real deck of cards.

That's pretty true with most of my friends. There's a few I will talk to outside of the internet, but those are mostly the people who don't use it that much.

4. You'd rather look all over the house for the remote instead of just pushing the button on the TV.

We never lose are remotes. Besides, I normally just use the buttons on the TV anyways unless I'm changing the channel.

5. IT DOES NOT EXIST.

I noticed. This happens in MySpace bulletins so many times that I actually look for mistakes like that just so I can ridicule the poster.

6. Your evening activity is sitting at the computer.

That and watching TV.

7. You read this list, and keep nodding and smiling.

I don't nod, and I'm definetely not smiling.

8. You think about how stupid you are for reading this.

MySpace Bulletins are worse.

9. You were too busy to notice number five.

Nope.

10. You actually scrolled back up to check if there was a number five.

Nope.

What stupidity?

I noticed!!

Haha, it's sad that it's so true.

Except that I play solitaire with real cards just as much on the computer..



You know you live in 2006 if you are surpriced that your friend hasn't been on myspace for a whole day!!

OM god!

Considering I'm of the non-MySpacers, a couple of these didn't apply directly.

It's funny how true #3 is for a lot of people. Hell, often enough people don't talk to each other even if they had all three things. I've heard from friends that MySpace is like having trading cards of your friends (and people you don't know whom you friended so you can have more friends) in that now that you have them, you don't seek them and you falsely feel like they're always there if you want to hang out and yet you never ask.
