generally happens only when others my age range are talking about all these paid channel shows they grew up on. I tell them nope, bunny ears. Free broadcasting only. Only kid stuff was on channel 17, PBS Kids
I get a lot of "oh shit I forgot how cool their stuff was too" now, but the first time, man I watched a ton of brains break because these shows they considered essential shows all kids watched, nope. Here's proof of otherwise

I'm one of the older folks in a couple groups, so sometimes, I'll talk about stuff that happened when I was a kid. One of the groups I'm in, it's become a running joke (one that I willingly and gladly perpetuate) that someone'll say something I don't know about and I'll go "I don't _____. Remember, I'M OLD!"

My mother says that frequently, especially when I don't want to go to school/work - back in my days we had to (blah blah blah)

There's a similar phrase that I hate so much, it's "you're too young for this" (I guess it comes down to the same thing). People say it a lot about music and tv shows/movies, pretending that the internet doesn't exist and that tons of younger folks don't listen to or watch older things. This has been a pet peeve for many years now. My mother is always so surprised I know certain movies as if TV doesn't keep repeating all the blockbusters of any age...
But I bet I'm a hypocrite cause I am sure I might've ever done it myself. I can't recall an event, but humans tend to be that way, haha.
I do know that when other friends bring it up we might reminiscence over things 'from way back' (such as how dreadful it was to connect to the internet), though I rarely bring up anything. It has got to be awfully relevant to the conversation, haha.

i'm going to be 29 in a month and a half, and any time i say something along the lines of "back in my day" it's to lament how things sucked more in the past and have gotten better. nothing is ever simple though. the world is complicated.

Makes me feel old that I can remember a time when few people had technology. I think i got my first phone in middle school , and it was one of those flip phones that you had to press 1 button a million times to get to 1 letter but I became a freaking genius at it. I could type a whole paragraph in that thing under 3 minutes and I amuse myself now and then remembering that, it's crazy times for sure. I love that most things are touch screen now, I wouldn't want to live without it now.
