I'm old enough to watch the Bills lose 4 in a row but young enough to barely remember wide right.
My first computer game was a book with the code in the book that you had to type in.
I participated in FidoNet.
I saw labyrinth in the theaters
I was in primary school when my father bought our first computer. A new 286.
I had "The Box" which gave us cable TV channels we weren't supposed to have.

I'm older than YouTube.
The first movie I saw was The Muppet Movie. First run in the theatre.
I bought music on cassette and again on CD, but never on 8-track.
As a kid, I thought Trailer Park Boys was an accurate, contemporary documentary about the world I lived in (or at least that of my friends who lived in the trailer park down the way).
Edit: Oh, and you had to go to a Chris Brothers store to buy Chris Brothers pepperoni - Sobeys didn't carry it yet. It was glorious every time.
I got my first dick pic scanned. Like, bro literally slapped his sausage in a scanner, shut the lid, and sat there while the light scanned up and down. All whilst maintaining a hard on.

old enough to remember musically but not vine
Much of my childhood was spent watching BAMZOOKi and Jungle Run on CBBC.
How old do you think I am?
at least 4
Correct!
Chernobyl may have had an impact on my fetal development.
Ghostbusters
Leaded gasoline, Vietnam war winding down along with Disco.
Grew up using Vista
XP for me but it was EOL
i though vista was basically dead on arrival?
If you had decent hardware for Vista, it ran like a champ. Those who upgraded from xp running on base specs had a hard time
Nah, that was ME. 98 second edition continued to be more popular until XP. Vista's problems were nothing compared to ME.
I remember watching TV as a kid and deciding that, when I grow up, I want to be just like:
A) Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman,
B) that hot Mountie from Due South, and
C) The Littlest Hobo
This could also be in a thread titled "Tell me you're Canadian without telling me you're Canadian".
I wanted to be option C sooooo bad until the money ran out on the first leg...
Maybe tomorrow...
I’m curious.
Did you grow up to be a female Canadian border patrol hobo who also knows some medicine?
I saved up a lot my lawn-mowing dollars to buy an Atari 2600.
