What are some things that younger generations eventually just won't understand?


For example, when will kids not realize why nobody likes them when they're 23? Are there people on here who don't realize why no one will like them when they're 23?

No matter how hard I think, I just for the life of me can't figure out what the fuck that means.

The fucking pound key. Bottom left hand corner on the keypad of a hard line phone. Bottom right is a star? Ring any bells??


Also, foot switch high beams in trucks, column shifters and chrome frisbees aka laserdiscs.

Wow I was thinking of some kind of physical key that would let you fuck anybody you wanted. Like the key to Willy Wonka's Fuck Palace.

But yeah what you said makes more sense.

DingoSeanPlease, tell me where you insert one of these on a T2i?



...Kids really don't understand.


The younger generation isn't stupid, we know what film is. I found a bunch of those in my dads closet, but when I pulled the strips out of the canisters there weren't any pictures on any of the rolls yet.

I was working with some youth the other day and realized that some of them weren't alive for 9/11. I'm not one to be dropping 9/11 references all the time, but it's weird that there are teenagers who weren't alive for probably THE single most significant event in the last 15 years.

What it's like to play outside out of view of your house all day without fear of being shot/kidnapped/etc




It was recently brought to my attention that OT can be played here:

To be honest hunting is kind of harder than I remembered and my people are not doing so well.


Just finished a whole game. I got a score of 2756, also known as rookie status.
