    If the kids from Friends were real:

    Emma would be 11 this year.
    Phoebe's triplets would be turning 15
    Monica and Chandler's twins would be 9
    Ben would be 18 in May :eek:

    I still remember the episode when Emma was born

    *Tear... they grow up so fast!

    I would imagine most kids in secondary school now don't remember when the PS1 and the N64 were considered high-tech, cutting edge entertainment.

    Master Of Puppets is 27 years old this year. :eek:

    Metroid Prime came out on the GameCube 10 years ago last month in Europe. Still my all-time favourite game.

    1990 was 23 years ago :(

    It only feels like yesterday when Italia 90 was on and about 20 of us were up on top of a bus shelter rocking the bollox out of it after David O Leary scored that peno.

    I was 9

    Most people in my class were born in 1990 and 1991. :o I was 9 8 then too. :(

    I'd imagine a lot of kids in Secondary School now don't remember a time when we didn't have mobile phones and you used the house phone to call your mates, we didn't have Sky Plus and the like and you'd to record stuff on DVD or better again; video cassettes. As for cassette tapes... perish the thought!

    Anyone born in the 80s has lived through some of the most enormous changes in technology ever seen I would say. I doubt that the extent and speed of change from 1990 - 2010 will ever be replicated.

    Most of all; there are kids in school today who'll never have heard the joys of bopping to Scooter in a teenage disco. That fact genuinely makes me sad. :(

    To counter this thread title, think of it like this...youtube only came into existence in 2005. I still remember my friend telling me to check it out. That's not long ago at all

    Why, how tall are you that you need to keep growing until you're 25??? Unless you're like 4' 6" or something, I wouldn't worry too much...

    Over 6ft but as far over that as I can get I'll be happy :p It's the fact that you stop growing and it's all downhill from there is what scares the bollix off me!
