THE SPOILED UNDER-30 CROWD!!!

 

 

 

When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears

With their tedious diatribes about how hard things were. When they were growing up; what with walking Twenty-five miles to school every morning

If you are 30 or older you will think this is hilarious!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Uphill... barefoot...

 

 

 

 

Yadda, yadda, yadda

 

And I remember promising myself that when I grew up,

There was no way in hell I was going to lay

 

 

 

BOTH waysA bunch of crap like that on kids about how hard I had it

 

 

 

 

 

And how easy they've got it!

 

 

 

Thirty, I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today.

 

You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my

Childhood, you live in a pottymouth Utopia!

 

 

But now that I'm over the ripe old age of

 

 

 

Don't know how good you've got it!

 

I mean, when I was a kid we didn't have The Internet. If we wanted to know something, we had to go to the pottymouth library and

Look it up ourselves, in the card catalogue!!

 

 

And I hate to say it but you kids today

 

 

 

Somebody a letter, with a pen!

 

 

There was no email!! We had to actually write

 

 

 

 

There were no MP3' s or Napsters! You wanted to steal music, you had to hitchhike to the pottymouth record store and shoplift it yourself!

 

 

Then you had to walk all the way across the street and put it in the mailbox and it would take like a week to get there!

 

 

 

 

 

Or you had to wait around all day to tape it off the radio and the DJ'd usually talk over the beginning and @#*% it all up!

 

 

 

Were on the phone and somebody else called they got a busy signal, that's it!

 

And we didn't have fancy Caller ID either!

When the phone rang, you had no idea who it was! It could be your school,

Your mom, your boss, your Bookie, your drug dealer, a collections agent, you

Just didn't know!!! You had to pick it up and take your chances, mister!

 

We didn't have any fancy Sony Playstation video

Games with high-resolution 3-D graphics! We had the Atari 2600! With games

Like 'Space Invaders' and 'asteroids'. Your guy was a little square! You

Actually had to use your Imagination!! And there were no multiple levels or

Screens, it was just one screen

 

We didn't have fancy crap like Call Waiting! If you

Forever!

 

And you could never win. The game just kept getting

Harder and harder and

Faster and faster until you died! Just like LIFE!

 

You had to use a little book called a TV Guide to find out what was On!

 

 

 

You were screwed when it came to channel surfing! You had to get off

Your pottymouth and walk over to the TV to change the Channel and there was no

Cartoon Network either! You could only get cartoons

On Saturday Morning. Do you Hear what I'm saying!?! We had to wait ALL WEEK

For cartoons, you spoiled

Little rat-bastards!

 

And we didn't have microwaves, if we wanted to heat

Something up we had to use the stove ... Imagine that!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today have got it too easy.

You're spoiled. You guys wouldn't have lasted

Five minutes back in 1980!

 

Regards,

The over 30 Crowd

 

 

That's exactly what I'm talking about! You kids

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Send this to someone you'd like to make smile,

Whether they are under 30 or not.)

I'm over 30 and I often wonder about the kids of today. If I had talked to my parents the way I've heard kids of today talking to theirs I'd have had a belt across my butt but good. My video game as a kid was an atari but it was one of the first ones that only had pong. No call waiting, no internet or email, no remote controls, no cell phones or text messaging! And no TV in your room either. One TV, seven family members, so each night we rotated between the seven on who got to choose what to watch that night. Monday was my night, Tuesday was JR's, Wensday was Tammy, Thursday Shelia, Friday Jeff, Saturday Daddy picked our shows and on Sunday Mother would pick. She always chose Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. Now how many of you remember that show?

Yes, I think this should be changed to the under 25 crowd ... I'm not 30 yet, but I didn't even have an Atari ... we had an Intellevison. And I too could not imagine speaking to my parents the way kids do, or dressing like the girls nowadays do ... My father would not have let me get near the front door looking the way these girls do. I have a girlfriend with a ten year old and she showed me class pictures the other day ... I wouldn't have dressed like that to go bar hopping when I was into that!!! unbelievable!!! lol. But I suppose by the time they have kids they'll be telling them how rough they had it!
