I'm sorry to say that I believe most of this crowd would be a poor addition to the site. I think they would not have the interest or the patience for such an endeavor. You my friend may be the lone exception.

As a college professor once commented to me after an exchange in which I was against the class. "Does it bother you to be alone."

I'd say that makes you the anti-mellinnial. I don't use these things either, because I really don't see a need. I might use some if I lived away from my immediate family, but since they're local, no need. Quite honestly I see no need whatsoever to post where I am and what I'm doing.

Yeah I never got the whole snapchat craze, but I'll tell you what! I'll get snapchat, become an expert snapper, then when I've mastered the art of selfie, I will teach you all the tricks of the trade! Who should my first student be.... OH! How bout Alfred?

I enjoyed HOI 3, more of a Darkest Hour with Grand Campaign mod though.

Status: offline 		'95? Geez its getting closer to me.

So in 30 odd years I'll get one of my (hopefully) good kids to help me move on over to the AE Geezer thread, by then I'm sure even I will be confused by Windows 50. Are migrations even allowed or does this thread go by the rule "Once a whippersnapper, always a whippersnapper"?
