you know when you're living in 2004 when..

1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.

2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.

3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.

4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.

5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6. You go home after a long day at work you still answer the phone in a business manner.

7. You make phone calls from home, you accidentally dial "9" to get an outside line.

8. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.

10. You learn about your redundancy on the 11 o'clock news.

11. Your boss doesn't have the ability to do your job.

12. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home.

13. Every commercial on television has a website at the bottom of the screen.

14. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

15. You get up in the morning and go online before getting your coffee.

16. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. [img]smile.gif[/img]

17. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

18. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

19. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

20. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list. AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.



EDIT: btw i too got this from a friend... :D

LOL at 19 and 20. But for the rest I don't think it's funny that some are true. Even worse if all of them are true. Doesn't sound like being a very social person :D

Omg, that is hilarious! :D
Nice one, SF. [img]graemlins/awesomework.gif[/img]
Each one is as true as the last, especially 19 and 20 [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Stormymystic 11-07-2004 12:34 PM

Oh no! This is so true! [img]smile.gif[/img] Most of these crazy things... and how do you not scroll up? That is a trick!

Xen 11-07-2004 01:11 PM

ROFL. I had a really good laugh. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Ack, I did it too! Number 4 amuses me because I see it happen all the time

I admit to emailing the people in the office across the hall instead of going to see them [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img] ... in my defence, they had just emailed me, so it was a reply... ;)

I was just thinking how funny it is now - when email was just new, people didn't really trust it and used snail mail for important stuff. Now, I am leery of snail mail (for no good reason, granted), because with email it's an instantaneous thing and I can get a return email of their receiving it!
