Things your children may never know about

As a youngin born in '94, I believe the general age of 18-20 is the cutoff for remembering a lot of these things.

 

I remember when I was young, I'd get home, finish my homework as fast as I could, play outside until dinner, go right back outside after dinner, and stay out until it was time to go to bed. It was marvelous and I loved every minute of it.

 

My younger brother is 5 years younger than me, and while he got to experience some of that at a young age, I see him sitting inside watching TV or playing with his iPod all the time.

 

It's sad kids will never be able to experience stuff like that anymore, where now a days instead of playing cops & robbers on your bikes, kids would rather play Grand Theft Auto on their X-Box or Playstation.

 

Honorable mention to the plastic big wheels too, those things encompassed a lot of my childhood. And once I got to the bike riding age of 5 or whatever, scrap plywood for building ramps was the bomb.

 

Damn, I miss being a child hahaha. Can't even imagine how you older individuals feel.

I think VHS will have a comeback with a niche market like vinyl has today. There's already a few companies that make new VHS tapes. Eventually people are going to remember going to the video store and getting the 5-5-5 deal and want to relive some of that VHS tape magic. Who knows though, maybe someday kids from now will feel nostalgic about Netflix and Redbox.

 

 

 

They'll also never know the horror of trying to see your first porn on a dial up connection

      Hoping you guys keep it up

      By X-Clown · Posted

      It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).

      I'm sold on the NFL being fixed.

      Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️

      Cam on ‘The Bank’

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
