....you try to explain to a 20 something co-worker that the letters on the telephone were there because telephone numbers used to have letters in them......not for text messaging.

I do this as well.

When staying out late means 9:30.

When driving to the outlet mall, the conversation starts off with "I remeber when this used to be...."

When the beat up car you drove to high school is now considered a classic.

When a movie you remember from a few years ago turns out to be over 20 years old. (i.e. Top Gun, Major League, Back to the Future)

When you have to finally give in and buy your 1st pair of reading glasses.

When they use music you grew up with in TV ads.

You remember when a 9600 baud modem was blazing fast.

You tell someone you remember when a 10 MB hard disk was as big as an LP and you even know what an LP is.
