1991, Are You Kidding Me?
by Nathan on Aug.22, 2008, under Uncategorized
The other day, I stopped at the store on my way home. Standing in line, I noticed the guy in front of me paying with a check. I mean really, its 2008 and we are still using checks, come one people! So after writting his check, he was asked for his ID by the clerk. Yep, she had to write his info down, BECAUSE HE USED A CHECK!!! Sorry I get angry over people using checked for everyday purcheses. When she was done writing his info down, she handed the ID back and said “Your birthday is a day before mine”, to which the man replied “Yea and about 30 years”. Then the shocking part came. The clerk replied “Yea I guess, since I was born in “…wait for it….”’91″. Right there, my head almost exploded. This girl was wroking in a store, and she was born in the 90′s. How does that work?
In 1991:
- Nirvana released “Nevermind”
- The Soviet Union officially ceases to exist.
- The “Super Nintendo” is released in the United States…Meaning this girl has probably never played a SNES or NES.
- Beating of Rodney King by Los Angeles, California police officers.
- Gulf War already going on.
- Actor Paul Reubens (aka Pee-wee Herman) is arrested in a Sarasota, Florida theater for publicly masturbating….Meaning she doesn’s know anything about Pee-wee Herman’s Playhouse
Dammit I’m getting old and didn’t even realize it.
