Giuseppe Zangara Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 DAMN this thread is making me feel old. You're not the only one. Friggin' Le Freak was dominating the airwaves when I was born. Disco was fucking popular, man.

Giuseppe Zangara Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I find it weird and slightly upsetting whenever I am in a convience store and see a sign that implies there are people who were born in 1986 that are old enough to smoke. I entered the second grade in 1986.
Slayer Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I don't even recognize 90% of the UK songs I feel so American..
Giuseppe Zangara Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 allmusic describe Boney-M—they of the number one hit when I was born—as "Euro disco." Man.
justsoyouknow Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I find it weird and slightly upsetting whenever I am in a convience store and see a sign that implies there are people who were born in 1986 that are old enough to smoke. I entered the second grade in 1986. I find it weird that you go to convenience stores for something other than cigarettes. I turned 18 on April 16th, and it's glorious.
Ripper Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I go for quality groceries because at 1.00 per orange...that must be one good orange.
justsoyouknow Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 I can't wait for the Playboy "Women of Circle K" shoot.
