You Know You're Living in 2007 When...


Okay - this is kind of dorky...but mildly entertaining in some ways...

1 - You accidentally enter your PIN on the microwave.

2 - You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. (yep)

3 - You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.

4 - You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you. (all the time)

5 - Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.

6 - You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.

7 - Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.

8 - Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't even have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.

10 - You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee. (sometimes)

11 - You start tilting your head sideways to smile.

12 - You're reading this and nodding and laughing.

13 - Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.

14 - You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

15 - You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list. AND NOW UR LAUGHING at yourself.

I don't understand #11, unless it's like #12.

yeah, it didn't really click for me either. At first I assumed that there must be meaning in the tilt...but I think it's actually just a prelude to nodding and laughing.

Actually, I think it a reference to this :)

the computer version of a smile :)

It is definitely taking about :). Since I don't have a cell phone, does that mean I don't live in 2007? Or am I just not to be aware that I live in 2007?

I don't understand accidentally entering your pin into your microwave. That seems to me to be an indicator of a substance abuse problem and not a 'must be 2007' moment.
