Or a bit of a show off or even a alcoholic

Aging doesn't make me feel old. It's the blasted SIDE EFFECTS of getting old that make me feel old!

Same here

I remember when a shop always treated a customer with respect and "a customer was always right".
What happened there

 

[Marie2020]

I remember this

Oh, I remember watching my dad shave with the brush and lathered soap...

I can even remember that smell. I loved watching my dad shaving

Shaun was closer to my age but David was (one of) my "Teen Beat" heartthrob(s).

Hey. I saw him first

The only video game I ever have wasted much time on is flight simulators. That grew old when my chair would never leave the ground! Of course it was nice not dying when I crashed on the program. I did learn something about flight control surfaces and more respect for successful combat pilots.

My dad was in the AF 60 years or so ago, and about 20 years ago, he discovered one of those. I pretended to be interested when he went over every gauge, button, dial, etc. He said he was surprised at how close to realistic some are.

Same. I was in 7th grade. I remember my teacher bawling her eyes out bc her sibling was working in the towers. She never talked about it after, and I was sent to my uncle's house in Florida shortly after to finish the school year. You?

I am in the UK and firstly witnessed this on a news channel. I thought we were going into another world war .

Around a week later i was travelling back home on a train, and that horrifying nightmare hit me in my heart again, as it did many people here.

Everyone in that train carriage was so sad, and a few guys were crying because they had lost their overseas colleagues, they told me the fact that would never speak too them again had just devastated them. I still tear up just thinking of it.

One of these guy's had actually visited his colleagues and their families.

Also. I remember Oregon Trail, and floppy discs.

Well.. my nostalgic sounds a song...but sharing it anyway .
My dad singing "If silence is golden". He didn't sing it the way Lynn Anderson did. His version was beautiful and poignant in a way hers misses. He passed away about 20 years ago and I'll never hear it sung that way again. Unless I magically develop decent singing pipes of my own

Aw.
