Share with us a personal "I'm so old" story.

I'm so old I remember when carnivals still featured freak shows.

EDIT: I remember my parents got a "baby bonus" from the gov't of $8 per month for me in the 1950s !!

I'm so old I remember drive in movies. Movie theaters that only had one screen. When if you were waiting for a phone call you had to stay home all day because cellphones weren't even a dream yet.

@rinkydinkydoink I have seen a couple of those, but I don't actually know what they are for.

@rinkydinkydoink Wow! I grew up in the Washington DC suburbs. We definitely didn't have horse drawn anything there.
