AGH!!<BR/><BR/>ben - hullo! We didn't have a dance as much as we had an awkward shuffle, but anyone who had even heard of them would have had some idea! It's funny how commonplace the 'net and mobiles are now - I remember trying to dial into the phoneline to play talking games with my friend in year 10, and then when it was dorky to have a phone in year 11 - I had a pager first!<BR/><BR/>sp - Heh heh, come now - age and beauty come in hand in hand (ie, they're young and ugly) ;o)Ennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613379734506337694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12231828.post-76550386227112109472007-07-10T13:26:00.000+10:002007-07-10T13:26:00.000+10:00Lately, I have been noticing the same thing.

I'd just like to say that getting a group of people together to dress up as Devo is one of the coolest things I have ever heard about in my entire life.<BR/><BR/>I would have recognised you. I was best man at a friend's wedding, and while his bride was talking to other friends, he and I enthralled the reception crowd with an interpretative dance of 'Whip It'. That footage will haunt me one day.<BR/><BR/>Also, in my teaching experience I think there is a huge generational change between those born in 1984 and 1986. Those born after 1986 can't remember a time without the Internet, and have had mobile phones since starting high school. That's a frightening thing when you think about it.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10517717400470377806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12231828.post-69930048889372847432007-07-09T19:09:00.000+10:002007-07-09T19:09:00.000+10:00I hear ya, and raise you 4 years on that.I have to...I hear ya, and raise you 4 years on that.<BR/><BR/>I have to admit I'm still hyperventilating about reading that people born in 1986 are 21 now!

I shall never attend another dress up party again, for fear of unleashing my thighs upon the masses.<BR/><BR/>mick - you confused me with your profile AND I didn't know you had a 22yo sister! There definately must be a lot going on - I guess, to look back at how I was at 21, I wasn't THAT dad, but there certainly was a lot that was different to how it is now... makes you realise how quickly time flies but how much time has passed (or not)!Ennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15613379734506337694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12231828.post-73590872645960862712007-07-09T08:58:00.000+10:002007-07-09T08:58:00.000+10:00There is a HUGE difference between 21 and 25 as I ...There is a HUGE difference between 21 and 25 as I keep trying to tell my 22 yr old sister. <BR/><BR/>There is a great amount of maturing, but mostly there is just a great amount of living that happens in that time that shapes the way we think and react.<BR/><BR/>And you're right about the slutty fashions. Stand in Civic on a given Saturday night and just look at what they're wearing nowadays. <BR/><BR/>I mean, I am not a prude or against a bit of skin, but damn....why didn't they wear that when I was 21? ;)Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02606920501834059243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12231828.post-14866218296318512612007-07-09T08:22:00.000+10:002007-07-09T08:22:00.000+10:00There is nothing worse than family or family frie...There is nothing worse than family or family friend 18ths or 21st.<BR/><BR/>The birthday persons guests are almost always at the age where they just stick close to the people they know and haven't always learned it's not very nice to slag off at the other party guests.<BR/><BR/>You are such a saint for dressing up (properly)! Dressing up as pretty well anything these days DOES just mean dressing like a slut, so you'll know for next time :PJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01585397453741674520noreply@blogger.com
