Surge hasn’t been sold in ten years.  These 40 things will make you feel old (assuming you’re not young in which case you won’t get these references which in turn will make the rest of us feel old.)

it's kind of presumptuous to say that kids born today won't know what "rewinding" is

i mean...i know what a cotton gin is...

...and i have never used a cotton gin nor have i ever had a need for an efficient means of cotton processing

plus it's not like all of the vhs tapes are crumbling to dust

Every time my boyfriend says (or I say) that we're too young to be thinking about marriage, we see something like this.

Then we cry together for about nine hours and discuss wedding plans.

Also, a cotton gin? Really? Are VHS tapes that antique?! :( Sad day.

Age is just a number.
I'm 34, I play MMOs. I watch my little pony like a boss. I still get carded/asked for ID in most clubs and when buying cigs/booze/whatever.
I bike, I jog, I work out. No crumpled up old person crying about a bad back.
I'm not bogged down by all the expected life accumulation that comes standard with my age. No kids, no ex-husbands.
I keep up with trends (yes, I read le rage comix).

I'm "grown up" when I'm in the mood to be. I file my taxes, I pay my boat docking fees, I like to go on wine tours.
But honestly, I really find a lot of "older audience" stuff really dull.

Yeah I used to own a commodore 64. And these days I have a PC just like anyone else, and an Ipad...and smartphones. I keep my brain up to speed. I had a PDA long before the iphone was popular. Cause I'm hipster like that.

So "kids these days" know more about robot chicken, than they do liquid TV. Ok.... and then?
