Alright then. Come to TN to swim and bask in an underground waterfall with mansions overhead. I'll let you test the phoneclock thing for yourself...  !



If I could go to some waterfalls, the last thing on my mind would be my phone clock :lol: I've never even seen a waterfall. Actually I haven't really seen much beautiful scenery at all. The best I've seen is the night sky in the middle of the desert in New Mexico and a mountain in Arkansas. I live in Texas, the scenery where I live is basically just chemical plants as far as the eye can see.

I learned about mirages the hard way in New Mexico. Me and my brothers spotted a "beach" way off in the distance and decided to go check it out. We walked for about a half an hour never getting any closer to it before my dad showed up screamed at us. At the time I didn't really get it, but looking back on it I do.. :lol:

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.


You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being
With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I'd like to stay in a desert for a week or so. I'd like EVERYONE to visit TN though.

You still have VHS or you still have floppies? I assume if you're holding onto floppies you have media on them. Do you have a way to see see whatever's on them? The last time I used one was around 2006 or 2007.

I still use CDs and handheld maps/atlases a lot. I know what you mean though. Speaking of music media, I think with my age group, vinyl records are more popular than CDs.

Paper books are sort of becoming obsolete. A lot more people seem to be reading on digital devices now.

Cable TV is pretty much obsolete. I can't believe people are still paying for that, I can watch anything I want on the internet.

Web TV
Rabbit Ears
Walkie Talkies
Portable TV's
Lawn Darts
Board Games?
AM/FM Radio
Old 3D Technology with the blue/red glasses
AOL

i still have a whole shelf of VHS movies. some of em home movies we made in the 90s. and a 5 pound box of floppies with games like minesweeper, and .txt video game strategy guides on them

no way to use the floppies ATM. but you can buy a USB floppy drive for like 20$

still have a VHS player, and it can transfer them onto dvd

Something there is mysteriously formed,
Existing before Heaven and Earth,
Silent, still, standing alone, unchanging,
All-pervading, unfailing,
I do not know its name; I call it tao.
If forced to give it a name, I call it
Great (ta). Being great, it flows out;
Flowing out means far-reaching;
Being far-reaching, it is said to return.


It's just a shot away..

To a degree, yes, but I still see a lot of people using them, including young people. I know I do a lot.

I wonder if children still use them as toys though.

I think they're on their way out. My wife and I still play them a lot, but I think we're in the minority. Same goes for cards and jigsaw puzzles. I doubt young kids are building model airplanes and such either.

AM/FM Radio




Yeah, it's not as big of a medium, particularly with young people, but it's still pretty big. I listen to FM everyday, and just two or three years ago I still listened to AM everyday.

How can you say books are not relevant anymore? Unless you are using a kindle or whatever or e books then I guess...but I'd still consider that a book.



I'd say VHS/walkman/discman/floppy disk/ are pretty much the biggest ones for me.

I still do use my digital camera sometimes, but most of the time I just use my cell camera.

I've been meaning to make this my ringtone for a while.

Do ferbies count? If not than crtv's.

Someone already took crtv's sooooo, im gonna say rolling papers. Seems like im about the only person who uses them anymore. I know theres a handful of people here who do, but it seems like so many kids these days hate on them because they waste weed.:sad:
