All the ethics, and environmentalism in college they said was important was lip service. Innovation, science, learning, has been replaced by stupidity, fear, and extremes of religion and politics. People don't discuss anymore, it's all anger, I'd love to go back to carefree summer days, of running barefoot in the grass jumping through sprinklers. That lying in the back yard enjoying sun and watching the clouds drift by was more fun than the internet. Link to comment

Anyone else? The first Transformers movie was animated . Michael Bay doesn't count. Link to comment

When I was young, I never would have guessed that 40 years after cheering for the same team they would still not have a championship. When I was young, I fully expected that mankind would have interstellar travel and that I could take a vacation in space when I got older. Technically you can take a vaction into space, it just cost you a couple million dollars Link to comment
Where's Wellwood Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 One of the episodes of the x-files had me checking the floor on the other side of the bed for years because I believed there'd be a bloody man with no legs using a skateboard propelled by his arms to get around.

riffraff Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I thought any hockey player could sign an autograph so I asked Richard brodeur, whom I met at a family public skate at west van rec centre, for Wayne gretzky's autograph. Link to comment
AV. Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Don Sweeney in NHL Blades of Steel 2000 for PSX looked like he was 300 pounds in his picture/avatar in the rosters. So naturally, there was a point in time where I thought goalies were fat and players could be fat.... Thankfully, Kyle Wellwood in 2009 training camp confirmed my thoughts. Link to comment

73 Percent Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 On 15/03/2016 at 1:43 AM, Mikey2Dope said: I think when most people are kids you generally think "Oh he's an adult so he must be so smart and know everything." Then you get older and quickly realize how wrong you were. You quickly realize that, now matter how old some people are, there are just some insanely stupid people who lack common sense. Oh man that first part applies to me. I think I started realizing early though, when I was 19 maybe? I think people like you and I thought this because our parents had their $&!# togather. Once I got into the real world I realized I was lucky to have parents like mine. Also realized that the majority of people are not really up to my standards. Link to comment
