Post your non-political, non-Obama, non-Culture Warrior related gripes about this great nation and the things leading her to the toilet here. People who want to turn the thread political need not post.

Let's get it rolling.

1. The cancellation of Acme Hour on Cartoon Network and its replacement with Anime and most of Adult Swim.

2. Cartoons in general

1. Too much barking, not enough wagging.

2. No new Seinfelds/Andy Griffith (Black and whites only).

3. Education.

4. Texting.

Easy access to stuff.

Growing up, a football jersey meant a correct colored t-shirt with printed letters on it.

You wanted information, you looked in you 25 volume encyclopedia or went to the library.

You wanted to hear a song, you bought the record or waited for it to come on the radio and tape it.

Phone conversations were a pretty big deal, and kids learned phone ettiquette.

Movies came on once a year.

There were about 6 channels and that's about it.

They discussed all the scores on the sports cast at 10PM, because there was no Sportscenter.

The only place to see highlights of your NFL team if it was not local was at half time of Monday Night Football.

WAtching sports was kind of a big deal, because your options were limited.

More of what's wrong with America, without becoming political:

1. Iggnorance. There, is that better?

;)

2. People talking about how bad things are. Go back into the late 20's and 30's, live a little, and THEN tell me how bad you got it.

:cool:

3. Timeouts.

4. Not collecting $200 for passing GO.

5. No more Grape Pop Tarts.

Victoria HS had most of the white people. Stroman had most of the minority. That's what caused consolidation....but VHS had its fair share of hispanics, myself included. :cool:

But VHS was white compared to Judson. Maybe thats what she means. :D
