Or we are so old. I remember smoking in hospitals, cinemas, airplanes, etc. That's the purpose of this thread. To see how the world has changed in such a short period of time. Let's have fun while we do it though.

"Honey, don't forget to turn the power surge strip on!!"

How about "You son got into a fist fight at school today - you might want to turn on CNN... it appears the FBI hate-crime unit is already on sight..."

If I'd have grown up today I'd be a multiple felon because I got into a LOT of fights in school. My nephew tossed an empty book bag at another student a few years back and was cited with three assault counts. And he was just playing around. Things have changed.
