The spoiled under-30 crowd!!!

[BY U BOY]

So back to the older people.

Who remembers Speed Racer the cartoon?

I remember that does that mean I'm old

[Davidmnc]

Yes

Do you feel old?

It was a long time ago.

[BY U BOY]

How about water skiing every day.

Gas went up to .60 a gallon. The old farts then would say it will be a dollar a gallon soon and nobody will use their boats.

Everyday after school all my friends would come over and we would scrap together about 10 gallons and ski until dark. Those were the good ol days.

I could fill up my car buy a six pack and some smokes and get change from a 20. Hell I could get loaded for 2 days in a row for 20 bucks now That will get 3 beers in a bar

I'm still trying to figure out how I was able to afford to go out every night before I met my wife. It cost me a hundy every night at the bar 3K a month in beer

WOW 36K a year...OUCH

[BY U BOY]

Do you feel old?

It was a long time ago.

Only when I'm at work not making any money But in the summer and on weekends I feel like a kid

[pullmytrigger]

just having fun with you old guys and making this place a little more lively

you just took the bait... phragle was a better sport about it than you

hey spell check that one to for me... im at work and dont have time

I just wasted about 10 pages listening to YOU!!!!!!

Last time we had some teenager with a big mouth come on here to "liven things up" his name was Long Duck Dong......and we all know what sort of a douche bag he turned out to be.......if you dont know him look him up.

If you dont like it you can always go start your own site with a bunch of calling you out powertripping 20 somethings......oh wait , you can just go over to Hot boat

Are you still here Long Viper.......??????

[MOBILEMERCMAN]

Viper is alright. He came on a little strong at the beginning.

SIR YES SIR!

are you REALLY comparing me to long duck??

well i dont think i have ripped anyone off? or treated anyone unfairly. im sry you took it so hard for me razzing you guys about being old but i just seen an opportunity to finally jump in on a thread and have some fun. i didnt think anyone would take it so literally??? YOU

btw ive been a member here just as long as you.. i think you need to relax and stop being so uptight. if anything you should encourage fellow young boaters to come here and socialize too.

im not going to go into one of my roid rages with you... wouldnt want you start a thread to "KICK VIPER OFF"

That is the impression that I get also.
While I am not trying to give him a free pass, I do not think that he threatens the well being of the site and I am not prepared to compare him to some LDD type person.
Can't blame him for missing all of the cool stuff that we did when we were kids and wanting to have fun like us.

Well... I think that I know how to take his posts now. This is why those dam smilies are so key.

GIant controller that turned the giant knob (not digital) LOL.

Anyone remember some of the early cable TV boxes???? 48 channels....row of 16 buttons with a switch on the side....tethered to the TV via a wire! If you pushed two buttons at the same time you could get a few special channels.

Or how about the first home video camera..... It hooked up to the VCR and weighed like 40 lbs.. lol

Please excuse my buddy "OLD guy" Doug. Its about 12 degrees F here. His toy box is covered in snow and ice. He can't boat and his wife is wearing a parka and muk luks instead of a bikini so he is probably just wound a little too tight right now
Once his house thaws and his boat comes out of hibernation and his wife starts removing layers of winter clothing, I'm sure he'll be just fine again

Hell ya, I broke one hitting my brother with it

[socalstone]

43 and have dealt with all of the above as well. very funny chit.

How about roll up windows and no air conditioning in my first two cars.

Remember getting up to change the channel on the tv?
And there were only 3 channels!

I remember when we got our first color tv.

Our first vcr had a wired remote.

Can you say Telephone cords?

the list goes on...

Hey now, I'm a moderator here. I could even "sticky" that thread in every forum














J/K dude.



By the way, I really like the direction you took your boat. Clean, simple and elegant. Very nice 41.

Styrofoam quarter pounder boxes:

How about the styrofoam chicken nugget boxes with the little corner section for the sauce!!!

BTW, I'm only 31 so I guess that puts me in Viperfitness' category...
