It took three seconds to download the second image? I don't mean to scare you but you might be in 1997.
Besides, date of birth doesn't necessarily dictate what technology you used when you were younger, I'm 17 and my first games console was a SEGA MegaDrive with Sonic The Hedgehog..
1997 minus about 6 or 7 years gets you back to... yeah, I'm pretty sure you're in 1997.
“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”

I think the funniest thing is that a guy posted a pair of images and a line or two of text as a lame joke and there are people around here who actually take the time to critique his blog post as if he were using it as the basis for a PHD thesis!

It's like I gotta take a gak, but tough gak if you gotta take a gak! You better have turbo turds! I've got gak stains in my pants and an answering message on my phone that says "Sorry, I'm playing Ghost Busters on Nintendo!"
Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

by "computer" I meant phone, and the associated rubbish Vodafone 3G internet, that takes about a minute to open this page.
I was really dissapointed by that test, I have a cassette recorder in my room. Huge thing, about 4 foot tall with 2 big speakers each about 4 foot high and 2 foot wide.
Of all the races of the universe the Squats have the longest memories and the shortest tempers. They are uncouth, unpredictably violent, and frequently drunk. Overall, I'm glad they're on our side!

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
My little 7 year old fingers did the job perfectly well without needing a pencil. Just stick it in and rewind. Meh, still I remember doing that and I'm only 20.
