Am I obsolete here?

[elshiva]

I find it difficult posting here any more. My dial-up doesn't get all the youtube and other video links. Also, I don't have TV reception so I don't see the latest tv shows. I am probably as uncool as it comes.

1. I rarely watch TV (seems like just when I'm in the hospital)...

.
.
.
...so I DO miss out on a lot of cultural icons.
.
.
.
But I've never noticed it really affecting me negatively in any way.
.
.
.
I listen to a LOT of Old Time Radio (Jack Benny, Gunsmoke, Fibber McGee & Mollie, Phillip Marlowe).
How uncool does that make ME?
.
.
.
I finally know who and/or what a "Snooki" is.
.
.
.
You probably don't.

Loser.

3. Yep, I'm a loser.

I don't have Facebook or Twitter or Blackberry or Ipods. Just can't afford them. I feel like I'm from another planet.

4. That doesn't matter... you're cool here...

Compared to Middle Finger Mom, anyway

:rofl:

5. Thank you, but, MiddleFingerMom is very cool.

7. Oh, shucks....

I knew that... I was kidding, you know... :grouphug:

6. Out here in the boonies, nobody has cable. No fast internet.

Don't get me wrong. I don't live in the sticks. On a clear day you can see the sticks, tho. The point is we're all still cool around here. Country cool. :)

8. Country cool. What does that mean?

Don't know but I like "Country cool."

9. Relax -- all I gotta do is say the name "Kali"... and by comparison, you're an UBER-hipster doofus..

I mean... ... ... just look at her computer.

(pssssttt... don't tell anyone else... ... ... but she actually USES the word "new-fangled".)

2. For most of my time on DU, I had dial-up. And most of the youtube stuff is superfluous.
