I have two answers for you.
1: I have acne I’m too old for and gray hairs I’m too young for.
2: I have the depression of a millennial and the uninhibited madness of a zoomer.

What is that?
That’s a portable CD player with a tape adapter in its headphone jack. The tape is the played by the tape deck of your car stereo. This is for when you didn’t have a brand new car with a CD player in the dash or the trunk, but you still had a portable CD player.
Ahhhh I see now— for a moment for me it looked like one of those AI gen images where it looks like something but the closer you look it isn’t anything— used to have a tape to aux converter in my car for this purpose.
Currently there are about 8.2 billion people on earth. When I was born it was just under 3 billion.
I was at 3.7 billion. I could rant all night, but so many of our problems are from explosive population growth. Humans never developed political and social systems to deal with it, and we sure as hell didn’t evolve for it.
I did my part! No kids.
I got my 2, which is a statistical net loss.

Can vaguely remember the Berlin Wall falling. All the adults seemed to think it was really important.
I clearly remember it, I think you might be my little brother’s age.
This was my first console
Pong, right?
Yep. And a bunch of other games like hockey and what not
Well, that beats my 2600.
If it helps this was my second one…

My mum tried to ban me from watching South Park before South Park made fun of exactly that.
I wasn’t banned from watching South Park when it started. Even my 3 -year-old at the time brother was allowed to watch it with me. But I was banned from watching Ren and Stimpy several years earlier which disappointed me at the time but in hindsight I support wholeheartedly.
Maaaaan somebody reminded me this existed last week and I had to bust these out and give em a spin
Real talk, if you have young kids and DosBox or something, soooo many of those old games hold up.
Mine loved the OG Carmen San Diego games, though there were a couple short history lessons to understand some parts. Didn’t quite clue into the ‘use the dossier* to determine matches for warrants without a time penalty’ trick that earned me a pizza party back in the day, lol.
*I don’t remember what it’s called, the file with all of the VILE agents
White dog shit was a thing when I was a kid
I used to type Load “”
LOAD “BLAH” ,8 ,1. Just kidding, I only has a cassette drive. :(
Did you learn to splice with a razor blade and scotch tape?
your bottle of ibuprofen in your bag is getting low, you better refill it with the big bottle from the kitchen cabinet before tomorrow.
I was born during the One Child Policy in mainland China (I was the unlawful second-born child in my family)
My schools did active shooter drills when I was in K-12 school in the US
I was there, at Cape Canaveral, in the audience, when Challenger exploded. I had just finished Jr. Space Camp, and decided that if stuff like that was gonna happen while I was around NASA, then maybe I should look for an alternative career path.

I vividly remember seeing a show on TV very young, in a hotel room. It just happened to be on. When I saw it again, older, I realized it was the TNG pilot.
My rollerskates had 4 wheels and looked like tennis shoes. A cartoon named Thundarr helped develop my lifelong love of post apocalyptic media. Mtv played music videos, all day. I watched the pilot of my favorite t.v. show ever after work one night. “You exist here”
We used slide rules in high school physics class. I still have mine.
