I didn't own a C64, just a 2600 but if I was going to a mates to play on their C64 right after school, they would tell their Mum in the mroning which game to put on. She'd start it loading about 2pm ready for us when we got home at 3:45pm
OMG pong..Yep i hear these kids say back in the day all the time .. Ummm Hell you didnt have to wear funky clothes like we did "back in the day" Checkered pants "barf". saddle shoes.. moon boots.
but i can say the music was better back then rather whats out now..
I myself can say back in the day and have it make sense. Nowadays we have ipods and psp's, back in the days we had cassette and cd players. Back in the days people could rap about a story and it'd be considered good, nowadays people rap about drugs and have other rap along.
Hehehehe, 'back in *my*' day ...
8-tracks were the best thing since sliced bread... they sure as heck beat having to set the rpm on the turntable, making sure the correct 'spindle' was on there, putting-the-record-on/turning-the-record-over, and trying not to scratch said record with the needle.....;
Dictophones weren't 'tapes' they were green flimsy 45rpm size circles with grooves on them like 'real' records;
The only 'rap' we had was someone knocking on the door..... or gawd forbid a rap sheet...lol
We still had to punch all those holes in the cards (usually a few thousand of them) to run a simple program on a computer the size of a mountain....

And don't forget the "tele-type" machines that were the computers of today in those days. Talk about loud.
