Back in my day...

[TheOneHero]

I remember McDonald's having only served a few billion.

I remember K-A ratings.

I also remember when you could rent SNES games from Blockbuster.

You?

[Saiffy]

I remember when I got this huge scar on my left knee, that I probably should've gotten stitches for, but never did.*

I remember biting through just below the bottom lip, and getting stitches.

Uh...I remember getting my wisom teeth removed, and having them stitch up inside my mouth.


*It was actually a pretty funny story, now that I look back. Of course, I was 7 or 8, and had to walk about a kilometer home with blood constantly coming out of my leg, and I was crying more than a lot, but it was funny what I did to rip my leg open!

[CherryLunar]

I remember the Sonic cartoons on saturday mornings

I remember when I used to chew through batteries with my Game Gear.

I remember eating through bowls of sugary cereal... I still eat bowls of sugary cereal...

EDIT:
My Game Gear was blue

I remember using 3.5 floppy disks as games for my Amiga.

I remember wearing football kits often, even though I hate football (again, soccer to US http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif )

I remember thinking Linkin Park were heavy metal http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif x1000

I remember winning a competition to win a PS-One, and playing Driver 2 a week before release <3

I remember watching TV shows like X-Men (the old cartoon), Fantastic Four and Masters of the Universe.

I usually think of things like this randomly, when I actually want to remember, I can't.

I don't think I've heard of Masters of the Universe, what was it about? Maybe you can fix my memory. :3

But I totally remember the old X-men and Fantastic Four, just awesome.

LOL SPIDERMAN MEETS XMEN KEWL! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif (Seriously, one of their best shows. :3 )

Pirates of Dark Water and Reboot were among my favorites too.

[Neith]

I messed up, it was a He-Man cartoon, it wasn't actually called Masters of the Universe. Can't remember the actual name of it for the life of me http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

edit: Oh god, Reboot, I remember that I think- was it all computer-generated? Dudes with green skin? I have a vague recollection of it I think.
