      try taking a video of the moon on your iphone or whatever. bonus points if you zoom in and manage to not make it shaky.
      yeah, now picture something not as big as the moon being on the sky and how good of a job your phone does at capturing it against a black sky with no exposure time.
      good joke tho

      So crazy to think where we were at this time. Basically all the wannabe 90s kids who make up the college campus now were either just hitting elementary school or where no later in 3rd grade by 2005. The true 90s kids were in Jr high- early grades in hs. The kids that graduated or literally just graduated last year didn't even know their basic addition/subtraction math yet. Dawn Of The Dead just struck the world about scary fast zombies. Hit stick still wasn't a thing in EA games yet. It was normal to still see people with cd player's in their pockets. Ipods and MP3 were basically nonexistent until 06. Shit Michael Vick didn't serve time in jail yet and ESP magazines were still popping to read in the library.

      Lol good, my point of my comment was to give some minor nostalgia for the OG's while I shit on these lying kids with meme's on fb about how they were in school when 9/11 went down. Yeah we were in different worlds when that happened. I was only in 3rd grade by than. Yes 2001 was a HUGE year for the history books. I was old enough to have a conscious mind that our world as we knew it will never be the same but young enough to be brain washed very easily that we need more security etc, smh. I got out of hs in 2011 and by than we had the first black President, Xbox360/PS3 were basically our future desktop CP's that we could use on our 50 inch flat screens. Go back to 2001 and we were happy if you had one of those fat television with a Ps2 that only had a built in DVD player ( for some console's). Meanwhile Will Ferrell, Paul Judd, Steve Carell, Seth Rogan and them were about 3-5 years from taking over the comedy side of Hollywood. I have a older brother who graduated in 2002 so I can easily tell that you were born in 1983 and rn you must be between the ages of 36-37 years old lol. 80s babies rocked but boy are we from different time zones. I can only wonder what 2020s have in store for our politics, technology etc.

    I was 13 years old. There was a college in front of our house and american troop made it as their base and it was full of us soldiers. I can still remember the name of many of them. We were out there every day and we were playing football and having a lot of fun they were really nice and good soldiers. I remember that they took many pictures of us and i was giving them home made bread and they loved it. I always wonder what happened to them and if i can meet them again one day. I wish they are all still alive and with their family. God bless America.
