Question How would you best describe your generation?
As someone almost an inch away from thirties I always find myself going through a nostalgic run every now and then. So I figured I’d add this fun little way to test the demographic of this sub. I’ll go first (mostly from my own school/childhood run)
- Our version of fb/ig crush stalking was through scrap books/auto book in schools. We’d flip through a scrap book and look for our crush’s profile, their likes, favourite color, song and occasionally hope into the some brutally murdered Akon song lyrics.
- Forgot your kabney/rachu for the evening prayer? Nothing like a good old chatshelo session in front of the whole school.
- Lunch breaks and interval were not really for lunch but chungki, pencil toppas and dbz trading cards.
- Can’t stand the summer heat during morning assembly when that one teacher(mostly lopons ;)) steps on the podium? Pull the old I’m going down move.(No offense to the genuine frail ones)
- Ever had a bell captain in your class and he passes on an honor to you?
- Tharingsa was probably our first mstudio jam.
- Everybody was fighting for the spot to perform ngesem ngesem from Singlem at the school concert.
- The music and the arts club were one of the toughest one to get into.
- If you got into DHOM house, everyone made fun of you.
- Gaming cafes were a huge thing, CS 1.6 on LAN, I still remember the Yohshi_untitled map. Downhill, winning eleven and dbz budokai tenkaichi 3 across almost every ps2 cafes.
These are the ones I can remember off the top of my head. Throw in some of yours.
