Jack Frost Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 Well, I'm few years younger than those born in 1988, and most of them on the list could be applied to me too.
Gandalf Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 Even though the youngest of the 5 kids I have raised is of your group I hadn't thought of several of these. Thanks for the perspective. My oldest foster son is turning 52 sunday so I have kids who have all different awarenesses. Pax Steve
AFriendlyFace Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Thanks Myr, I guess about half of those were true of me and half weren't. What REALLY freaks me out is that people born in the early 90s are in their teens now!!! Well, I'm few years younger than those born in 1988, and most of them on the list could be applied to me too. younger? Even though the youngest of the 5 kids I have raised is of your group I hadn't thought of several of these. Thanks for the perspective. My oldest foster son is turning 52 sunday so I have kids who have all different awarenesses. Pax Steve Wow! That is quite a spread, Steve! That means there was only about a 7 or 8 year age difference between you guys too? Cool! I bet that gave you a lot of perspective. My birthday's Sunday too! Take care all and have a great day! Kevin
old bob Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 What was all that psycho babble about... Hi ! Just to say, that list apply only to US-youngsters . In Europ, the past is much better known and my 6 grandchildren (in age 9 to 29) even remember the Beattles . Thanks to Myr for posting this funny thing. BTW, my grandgrandchild Mina, born in June this year, will be a teen in 2020. Imagine the same list for her Old Bob
Drewbie Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) Well I was born in 85, only some of those apply to me I only seen old clips of Gildna Radner, one of the most funny woman on snl. Edited August 25, 2006 by Drew

Formosa Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Hi !Just to say, that list apply only to US-youngsters . In Europ, the past is much better known and my 6 grandchildren (in age 9 to 29) even remember the Beattles . Hm, Europeans like to cling onto their pasts, whereas Americans tend to (try and) forget them. Which may be the reason why most Europeans think people on the other side of the ocean are 'less cultured'. I'm a few years older than ones born in 1988, but a lot of the names and things I've never even heard of. Which may make me the 'less cultured' one here...
Formosa Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 If not knowing what "Boogers" candy is makes one less cultured, that is. Kitty "Boogers"? I'm 'googling' (verb use) as we speak...
Formosa Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 It's No. 26 on the "Class of 2010" list. I guess I'm not cultured either, since I don't have a clue as to what it is (and not really sure I want to know .)Kitty Aha, thanks to Google and my googling, I guess i'm a little more cultured than before. Let me share my findings As the name suggests...candy that looks like booger. Surprising, not from the US.
