If you remembered 0-5 = You're still young

If you remembered 6-10 = You are getting older

If you remembered 11-15 = Don't tell your age,

If you remembered 16-25 = You' re older than dirt!

 

 

I might be older than dirt but those memories are some of the best parts of my life.

I'm pretty sure Croatia was too poor for 90% of those xD

We didn't have milk delivery, we had cows at home :laugh: When I was a kid we still had them, which says a lot since I'm still a kid :P

[K00L]

My neighbor had cows for a long time! And across the street there were chickens. And not to far down the road horses!

Now the neighbors with cows passed away, no more cows. The lady across the street moved after her husband committed suicide, so now the people there have horses. Horses still at horse place. And on the other side of me... Exotic animals. I feel bad for them. The weather here is so up and down. I'm sure they don't like the freezing rain. Not to mention the tiny cages. Look... I would LOVE to have a tiger. But I won't. I never will. And that's fine. They aren't meant to be stuck in pens and taken to places like Missouri.

 

Guh I should sleep. I keep getting distracted. :facepalm:

 

Oh and I still have to play the Alan Wake "specials." I didn't even know it had DLC. And I especially didn't know I had them. Despite reading this:

Includes Alan Wake Special Episodes “The Signal” and “The Writer”

And then I went and googled to see how much it was and why it wasn't on steam. Then I went and got a drink of water. Looked behind the chat window at the Alan Wake page on steam and saw:

And was like. Oh. Okay I have it. ADFHJADFJP DERP HASHADHJEJ

[Vindekarr]

I remember 5, 12, 17, 18, 19, 20, 23, and 24.

 

I don't remember Packards or Studebakers new, but I have seen them driving around. Drive-Ins, there's still a few functional in Australia, Juke-Boxes, go to any retro restraunt, At school I made a semi-automatic peashooter., That was before 9/11, you'd be blacklisted and wind up in gitmo for that now. Retro is popular in Australia, especially classic cars; there's a massive following for older vehicles, and packards are a particular favourite.

I'm still trying to get through Alan Wake. Loving it immensely and, although having a few problems remembering how and what buttons to press, its addictive :D

 

I'm so glad you guys are enjoying the remembrances. They made me smile as I remember a fair few (yes, I'm as old as dirt :D)

[Vindekarr]

It's not from first hand memory, more being a history buff. For example I can tell you I remember Packard because they made a major contribution to the Allied war effort during WW2, and the final(and best) version of the Spitfire had a Packard engine block.
