You know you'e old

[Andee 220524]

You ARE old if you drink Labatt 50! :icon_smile:

 

My dad drank Labatt 50, so yes, that was the first beer I drank as an underaged teenager. My grand pere drank Red Cap.

 

 

Now I prefer Coors Light.

You know you're old when you remember when this movie came out in the theatres and adults were commenting on how it was the scariest movie they had ever seen.

 

 

And this movie made you afraid to go swimming again

 

And probably no ladies watched this show, and the guys watching it, well, I can only imagine :icon_rolleyes: what type of exercise they did LOL

... when your first "heavy petting" session was at a drive-in movie. There was one off of baseline and one that predated Britania 6 which then became the Colesium. Does anyone even call it heavy petting anymore????

...when you can remember when .01 cent candy actually cost .01 cent - and a soda n bag of chips was .50 cent.

 

...when you can't remember what you where going to... :S hmm, what was that again, oh nevermind.

 

...and: You know you are old when you say: You know you are old when... :P

HEY - I watched "Jaws" late in August of 1975 ... a couple days after getting back from spending a U of Waterloo co-op work term that put me in the Sahara Desert in south Libya ... I had started to smoke (tobacco) that summer and I think I cremated a whole pack during the movie ... yes, kiddies, you could smoke in movie theatres

[Guest f***2f***]

When you can remember getting .25 for your allowance and you could go to the store and buy a 10 cent pop, a 10 cent bag of chips and a 5 cent chocolate bar!

Hell, my high school had cigarette vending machines and a "smoking lounge" for the students to smoke.

 

My first job, my boss chain smoked. Crazy.

Should have known number 2....love Bewitched! :D

[Guest E*******h S******s]

The only one I didn't know was number six <sigh>

[castle 38816]

When you tell your co-worker that you'll be going to see Alice Cooper in concert that night and she asks "who is she?". Same girl who knows Ozzy only as that funny guy on The Osbournes.....no idea that he's a musician! She thought The Osbournes was his claim to fame! And it's not like it's just not her scene...she IS into metal! Or so she claims but I have my doubts :p.

 

When you tell the same co-worker about your favorite movies and she has no idea what movies you're talking about. And I'm not talking obscure movies either, I mean movies like Rocky, The Crow, Braveheart, Superman. ("You mean Superman Returns?"...."No....Superman....the first one..."...."You mean there was another one?"...."*sigh*....yes, with Christopher Reeve"....."The invalid? How did they get him to play Superman? With cgi?").

 

When you ask that same co-worker out for drinks and she kindly points out that she was in diapers while you were in your senior year of high school.

Dude, rough!

I feel your pain

 

I've had bad moments at work as well. Talking about concerts and venues around the city only to have her give me a blank look, which causes me to realize I was at those shows as a teenager and the venue no longer exists, all the while, she would have been just learning to ride a bike in the suburbs... Oops. There's many reasons why I won't date a coworker!

[Guest f***2f***]

when you remember crossing the river to Hull (when it wasn't called Gatineau) to go and drink underage at the Wellington House. Yep the old Smelly Wellie!!

 

(the bartender was only worried if you had the cash to pay, didn't give a shit how old you were and you sat with the old rubies sipping your draft and thinking you were pretty damn big!! lol)
