bigsteve Posted July 3, 2007 Report Posted July 3, 2007 YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2007 when... 1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. 4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you. 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses. 6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your mobile phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries. 7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen. 8. Leaving the house without your mobile phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it. 10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee. 11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. 12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing. 13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this Message. 14. You are too busy to notice there was no number 9 on this list. 15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a number 9 on this list. AND NOW YOU ARE LAUGHING AT YOURSELF
Tremor Posted July 3, 2007 Report Posted July 3, 2007 brilliant, i fell for every stage of that at the end, doh.
Uberduck Posted July 4, 2007 Report Posted July 4, 2007 4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you. I'm a sod for this. I do it on purpose though as the people I email are generally people in my department I dont like so therefore want to avoid talking to!! Sometimes I just do it to annoy people! Very good post :thumbsup: . Got me hook, line and sinker.
bigsteve Posted July 4, 2007 Author Report Posted July 4, 2007 When I email the person next to me its to cover my arse - if they don't do what I'm asking them too, I can at least prove I asked them to do it!
Quadrant Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I know I'm in 2008 when I tell a youngling that I was alive when the Internet didn't exist and he doesn't believe me. Or maybe I look younger than I am!
