How has the world changed since you were a child?

[JasonSJackson]

When i was young cell phones didnt exsist.........

u were the man if you had one of these tho

a few years later u were really the man if you had one of these....

also the radio used to play real music......

i can remember waiting by the radio at midnight to hear/record the 88.9 mix show.....or chilling on our block with the boombox letting the radio rockout.....


Cassette tapes

were what nikkas lived by.........a nikka could/would literally play a tape until it popped lol

Super soakers

...... lol....we would cause terror with those things......

i remember some nikkas here was putting bleach in theirs and spraying people in the face lol....smh...

On the flip side.....the violence was next level in the streets..........gunshots every night was the normal.......

i remember nikkas used to rent out Uhual trucks, load up in the back of them and ride around the city banking nikkas lol......

Reality TV is the norm, sport figures arent idols anymore, p*ssy is easy to get, nudes are a must when meeting a new bird

[stealthbomber]

as cellphone/computer technology improved society became more ADD. immediate satisfaction left people with absolutely no patience. i get pissed waiting 5 mins for an album to d/l and if its not properly tagged it used to take me hours.

and no ones plays outside anymore.
