Will Smith is as old now as Uncle Phil was when Fresh Prince started filming.

Wow.

Ratchet & Clank first came out in 2002. 12 YEARS ago.
First time I got into all that gaming stuff, besides Pokemon on GB.

 

[NewFresh]

Will Smith is as old now as Uncle Phil was when Fresh Prince started filming.

James Avery was 44 when the show started, Will Smith is 45 now and will be 46 in a month.


So Will smith is OLDER than Uncle Phil was when the Fresh Prince started filing

 

[Sir Blaming]

Halo 2 was my first FPS

[Thatonemoor]

I was 20 years old when Elvis Presley died.

Shit dude you have to be the oldest person on gaf.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Star Wars is nearly 40 years old.

Good ol' sci-fi adventure series.

Star Trek is nearly 50.
Star Trek TNG is nearly 30.

If you count Star Trek 2009 as a sort of "Next Next Generation," well, that started 5 years ago.

 

[RionaaM]

I was 4 months old when Freddie Mercury died. I also wasn't alive when Super Mario World came out in Japan.

Don't worry, it's not.

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Kids born in 2002 & 2003 are now entering secondary school in the UK.

 

[InfiniteBento]

I feel like I'm 12 on here in comparison to most

 

[Raist]

Will Smith is as old now as Uncle Phil was when Fresh Prince started filming.

I don't think Will Smith has a GAF account.

This was my first computer (in 1985):

High five.

Shit dude you have to be the oldest person on gaf.

I know at least one GAF member who's 61.

 

[Camp Lo]

I was born in '98.

What the duck... How did this get me?

 

[Nickle]

I was born in 2008.

 

[InfiniteBento]

What the duck... How did this get me?

I'm only 5 years before that but reading that still blew my mind.

Wait....doesn't that make them 16?

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I'm turning 18 tomorrow.

Spoiler

This got FakeGAF, it better get the rest of you.

 

[Badgerst3]

Growing up we had an actual sony Betamax.

 

[alterno69]

It's not so funny when you start being the older person at some pf the places you go, i'm just 34 but every time i go see a movie i notice like 90% of the people there is younger than me. And people tell me i look 20 something but still.

 

[valkillmore]

It was a fun weekend the time mom rented the videocassette player so we could all watch Alfred Hitchcock's 'The Birds.'

 

[Derwind]

Anyone remember the laserdisc?

Its 36 years old and I was born 11 years after it.

 

[Stormhammer]

This is still me from time to time

 

[demon]

I was born in '98.

Goddamn son I joined gaf the following year.

 

[Camp Lo]

Halo 2 was my first FPS
when i was 9. It was 2007

OMG dude...

 

[caramac]

Shit dude you have to be the oldest person on gaf.

Yeah maybe, but this thread is kinda confusing. Seems the only person I made feel old was myself :\

 

[Camp Lo]

This is still me from time to time

Yep, completely skip over the 2000's all the time.

 

[More_Badass]

I was in 6th grade when 9/11 happened

I was nine years old/in 4th grade that day. Don't even remember watching the news coverage.

I never played a Nintendo game, my first console was a PS1

Not posted yet? Might as well:

If you're 15 or younger, just remember that it's nevertheless probably too late to be a child prodigy.

The worst part is that the chart is old enough that I can't believe it was that long ago.

Yesterday you said you'd call Sears

I try to make "I'll call now" one of my life's motto's.

Spoiler

I rarely follow it though.

Yep, completely skip over the 2000's all the time.

I do that too. The 2000's don't have a catchy name like 90's, 80's, 70's etc. The 20's are coming up though. Some of my grandparents were born in the other 20's. x.x

 

[xsarien]

Not necessarily GAF, but a recent trip to the Museum of the Moving Image revealed that next to all of the classic arcade cabinets - Computer Space, Space Invaders, you know, the OLDIE OLD OLD stuff - sat a Genesis and NES.

I quietly left, at least happy that the child sitting at the Genesis seemed to be really enjoying Sonic.

 

[POWERSPHERE]

<30 young

>30 old

Looks like we have a 30 year old here.

I don't get it. I remember watching this on TV but it's just an average, plain commercial. Why does everyone seem to be weirdly fond of it?

 

[turtle553]

 

[Derwind]

Anyone remember arcades? Remember when that was popular?!

 

[Mistel]

Toy Story is older than I am.

 

[y2dvd]

I've seen gaffers of all age post here so not old at all really. I do hate those bday threads though because that's when it does remind me how old I really am. =l

 

[Zukuu]

You know you are old, when you can't relate to high school anime settings anymore.

Spoiler

glad I can... most of the time.

 

[Deleted member 102481]

Aren't there 12 year olds on Gaf

 

[Coolwhip]

Came out 17 years ago ;_;

 

[XiaNaphryz]

....

______ I graduated high school 2 years after you were born.
V

I was nearly out of university when you graduated high school. ;P

 

[Derwind]

Do you guys remember black boards and white boards in schools?

Well my baby neice in junior high is being taught with a giant touch screen monitor. Yep.

 

[Askani]

I'm 2 months older than Star Wars.

Someone here once posted that they had never seen any other version besides the Special Editions since they were born after they came out.

That shit sucked.

 

[megarockexe]

I was nine years old/in 4th grade that day. Don't even remember watching the news coverage.

I never played a Nintendo game, my first console was a PS1

Hey, me too for 9/11. I was too disrespectful.


What, Yu-Gi-Oh premiered in 2001 on Kids WB in the USA? Okay, that one sort of got me.

 

[SneakyStephan]

Will Smith is as old now as Uncle Phil was when Fresh Prince started filming.

That 70s Show would be about the 90s if made today and time differences were kept the same.

I thought I was over the 'I'm getting old' phase and was at peace with it

but these two...

Every time I hear someone talk about pokemon or spongebob or something as 'the good old days' I still feel old

 

[Get'sMad]

God...I'm 30 and a few 21 and 22 year olds have hit me up on Tinder and it kinda weirds me out. I mean its my fault too for liking them on the thing and I understand that like people mature differently but every time I'm talking to one things like "damn this person was barely even alive when Clintons presidency started" just keep entering my brain.
