Beachie MacLeech IRC was a blast for music sharing, I served on DALnet (#mp3z) and Undernet (#Mp3Passion). EmmPee3 slaps MacLeech around a bit with a large trout 😁
takeahike MacLeech Beat all of you, probably because most of you forgot the answers . . . Now that I know the answers, I may redo it, delete my first post, and post a 25/25! 😂😂
px_eliezer_ I got 17/25, at the start it was great but then ran into the kiddie shows etc. Who the heck is the random young man?
MacLeech px_eliezer_ Who the heck is the random young man? It was Tom, the default friend on MySpace (he was the cofounder).

takeahike You know you’re old when your first car (not your parents’) was an off the assembly line Studebaker. 1960 Studebaker Lark VIII Deluxe Convertible
Sparkchaser 16 You can be so old you know these things and you can be so old you forgot what you knew. 🙃
Somewhat-Reticent Sparkchaser Access to long-term memory gets (relatively) better with age. Less fluff getting labeled with sufficient ‘importance’, perhaps. ( 19/25, one lucky guess, several not-lucky guesses ) My parents had a Studebaker - rolling tank steel, roughly ’50-51 vintage.
egeezer The majority of that stuff I learned about from my kids. Now it they’d had a resistor, an 8X TV Antenna and a P38 can opener, a manual seed planter or hog scraper I would have done better.
real_aurgathor Was cruising until the Beanie Baby – girlie stuff, I presume….. 🫥 And I already knew Tom from this thread, so I’m only 20/25 old.
Dks01 takeahike PFFFT. You know you are old when you remember that Studebakers were made in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Dks01 takeahike Take the quiz and post your score: If You Can Identify Literally Just Half Of These Pictures, Congratulations! You’re Officially Old As Dirt. You know you are old when your ad blocker refuses to render the linked web page properly and you don’t give a damn.
Splitpair takeahike There’s also the issue that you should drive it before you buy it. I prefer leasing, that way when it goes in for it’s monthly maintenance I get to take out a loaner.
Splitpair Sparkchaser Turned 18 in ’63. Not sure when this “FREE” part started. Lookin’ out at the road rushin’ under my wheels Lookin’ back at the years gone by like so many summer fields In ‘65 I was seventeen and runnin’ up 101 I don’t know where I’m runnin’ now, I’m just runnin’ on
Splitpair Beachie It spans 3 counties and driving through it is like seeing a never-ending real life Truman Show set. Kinda like Cemetery Village aka G*ds waiting room. They can check out anytime they like and they always leave.
