Kid Facebook funny

[countthestars]

My friend's 14 year old just posted "imagine what the world would be like without Facebook".

I really want to write "it would prob be a lot like 10 years ago" but I would rather not look like an old fart

Lol, that's so true though.

LOL I can see my nephew posting that. But I would totally post your response.

I hate this post.

I remember reading something about car windows and that before too long, kids won't know why they call it "rolling down the window"


EDIT: Dont' forget to read with sarcasm

I'm not very old and I'd post your reply. My 15 year old niece has no clue what a floppy disk is. Thankfully she does remember vhs tapes!

On a similar note - I remember that as a kid, I thought the world my parents grew up in REALLY was black and white like their pictures. Obviously I was really young.

But she is right, life would be different today if FB never existed.
Better ? Worse? The same for some people?
But it isnt just a social thing, businesses use it, etc. it has changed cell phone usage.

But yes, I just feel old

My daughter was playing with a dial phone yesterday and I was telling her to call me up (toy-pretend) and then
I thought, she wont even understand that.

I was helping LSIL with something on the computer and told her to click on the floppy disk to save. She had no idea what that was. "The save icon?" She's 17 years old. :-|

There was a tongue-in-cheek article (cracked.com, maybe?) about icons that the current generation wouldn't have the reference points to understand - floppy disk for save, envelope for email, etc.
