Things we do to fit in"When I was fifteen," writes No3L, "I curled up in a Budgens trolley while someone pushed it through the supermarket doors to nick vodka and Benny Hedgehogs, just to hang out with my brother and his mates."
What have you done to fit in?

You're not alone.And being old doesn't make you of less worth than all these common or garden young whippersnappers around here.
I'm old(er) than this lot, but....
1. I invented computers. (well, I was there at the time) and they might be all whiz and wow with their high-end apps, but do they even know Assembler? How about CP/M? yeah, thought not.
2. I was playing The True Metal on a semi-valve and Fender when their *parents* were kids. They do not Know The Metal. They know whiny-emo kiddie-rock. All Hail May & Malmsteen!
3. I will kick their asses at any console game of their choice, providing its not on teh gay handheld stuff. Halo, bitches? step up!
4. Funny? Clever? Cut me teef on the likes of Sorry I haven't a clue, The Goon Show and Monty Python. Some of it might actually be new to them.
5. Getting pissed is a game for youngsters I grant you, but developing a knowledge of fine whiskeys and wines is the symbol of maturity. *hic* *rustles brown paper bag with unidentifiable bottle of grog in it*
6. Photoshop? Whats that? Is it like Boots when you take your kodacolour films? *scratch*
