When I was a little colt, If you had a SEGA Genesis, you were the "cool kid." Sadly, I never owned one until YEARS later.
[MENTION=5179]Rockout E. Stringer[/MENTION] - Incidentally, I was one of the few kids lucky enough to own both a Genesis and a SNES (the Clinton years were good to my family:derpe. To make up for this, though, our family was later only able to afford a PS1, and I had to wait till I made enough money working my crappy high school job to get my own N64. When I was a colt, liking Star Wars was something that actually got you ostracized in school. (Not to say some kids don't still call "NERD!" on it, but it seems way more integrated into our pop culture than it was when I was a kid.)
When I was a little colt, it was cool to like boy bands like NSync and Backstreet Boys. Any band that performed on Nickelodeon's "All That" was what the cool kids listened to, and not listening to that garbage was a subject for ridicule.
When I was a little Filly we used 1200 baud modems to log in to our Prodigy account to read text only websites ^_-
When I was a little colt this (#) was called the "pound sign"!!! [video=youtube;A-XUNzHpiLw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-XUNzHpiLw[/video]
When I was a little filly, my father told me "foal, don't ever play with bad guys, don't ever play with guns" But I shot a man in Reno. Just to watch him die. (Cookie if you get the reference.)
I thought it was "always be a good boy (or colt), don't ever play with guns." Anyhoo, Johnny Cash!!! FTW!!! When I was a little colt, it was popular for male bands to wear more makeup that female bands... you know, GLAM METAL!
When I was a filly the word 'thongs' referred to a type of footwear (now called 'flip flops'), not, well, you know. xD
I was about to say, "What do you mean WAS?" When I was a little colt, THIS VIDEO was the only thing that could make me sit still for 3 minutes and 55 seconds! [video=youtube;XcATvu5f9vE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcATvu5f9vE[/video]
I am wearing an Ozzy Osbourne T-shirt at this very moment. Strange... Anyway, when I was a little colt, we didn't have games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter. You had to go over to your friend's house and beat the ever loving sh** out of each other.
When i was a little filly, we used to buy dial up internet cards just to search something random.. Beep beep boop beep boop beep beep beep
When I was a little colt, satellite dishes were bigger than a plastic kiddie pool. Spoiler: You 'member... ...'member?
