Pretty much all of the above. I didnt read this entire post so dont know if this has been said but I feel old when I download NES games on my WII (Tecmo Bowl) and my wifes sister comes over and is like umm thats suppose to be fun, the graphics suck ass. Back when you had a small 13inch tv in your room and playin NES you were not worried about graphics, it was just fun playin the game. Also talkin about the "TILT" in the vintage fair mall and people look at you like huh whats that? I also agree with the music post, I hear music on Sirius radio "Backspin" i think it is, and oldschool to them in dre and snoop and Chingy and some Juvenile. Also remembering when there were no ipods and telling people how shopping for a decent CD player with anti skip was like a gift from god. Just having 20 seconds of anti skip was the shit! Or talking about the fireball Yo-Yo I used to own and playing Pogs in school and people look at you like huh? man I can go on and on lol. How about telling someone about Roger Troutman and how he was the best at using the talkbox. People like whats a talk box? so you explain it and they like ohh like the thing T-Pain does? lol. I also feel old when talkin about how the movie breakin was tight. responds is whats that? Or how about when you mention there should be another siccness BBQ and people wanna know when we had the first one?
Oh I have to add one and a BIG one. Telling people MTV used to play music all the time. and the response being, "what time did the reality shows come on like 16 and pregnant?
Or letting people know how much you miss watching Beavis and Butthead and no one knowing what your talking about until you let them know its the same creator as king of the hill.

I feel ya, because I didn't even touch a computer all through High School. Back in my day only fuckin' nerds went behind computers. My school didn't even have computers in the classroom like now days. I didn't even know how to work a mouse until 96' when I was forced to on the job. I also never knew what the internet was or get online until 99' ish on the job also. I never thought back then that I would be communicating with folks years later on a computer... Times have changed!
i just looked it up..
half a year before 2pac's greatest hits released, probably around april 2008, i was at a friend's in boulder, co. when i was living with my brother. the friend had dial-up. at his house, i went online and entered this thing called a "web address" from the back of a black market records cd. it had a phone number and an e-address. called the number several times, went to the website several times. oddly enough, the message (on the phone) was just like the message in the skit of the compilation album--i dont remember the name of the album, but it had the song refuse 2 lose on it. the website didnt have much at the time, if anything. a year and a half later, i had my own place in little rock and a friend helped me build my own computer. got broadband internet and went to the black market website and that redirected me to the 91siccness[dot]com. it was because of my interest in sac music and no other way to learn about it that i got motivated to learn about computers and the online world and i am old that way too.

i just trip out over the fact that kids born in the 90's are graduating high school. its been almost 10 years since i graduated and i'm still doing almost the same shit i was doing then, reading siccness posts and laughing my ass off. when i was in high school i thought for sure i'd be a millionaire by now. god damn it anyway
