What's funny is that I'm at least 6 years younger than you guys, and I can still relate to a good bit of these.

I loved this!

... I actually got kind of bummed when it came to an end though... "lol"

My friend tipped my chair just once and fell back and got a concussion in 7th grade. I am a chronic tipper and never fall.

It really pisses me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text.

I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear the computer history if you die.

Was learning cursive really necessary?

“LOL” has gone from meaning, “laugh out loud” to “I have nothing else to say.”

I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water.

I especially agree with all these.

I do this all the time

Sometimes, I’ll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the f was going on when I first saw it.
I think everyone has a movie that they love so much it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I’ll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone’s laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I’m still the only one who really, really gets it.

For me that movie is Silence of the Lambs... but with a little less laughter I'd say. On another tangent, I saw Home Alone 2 the other day. I used to love that movie as a kid but now I'm wondering what the hell I saw in it.

I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

I hate the converse situation more than this... it seems that I tend to bump into people I know when I haven't slept in 40 hours, am fuelled solely on caffeine and an insubstantial breakfast and consequently can hardly string together a sentence. Not the best time to meet the girl you have a mad crush on.

Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, hitting the G-spot, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey – but I’d bet my ass everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time.

Definitely one of the divine exceptions to Fitt's Law. I hate alarm clocks... I shot mine with a BB gun once.

On teaching rounds I have major issues with kids tipping their chairs. Have had many fall off; one ended up putting a hole through the wall with his chair. So now I have a rule that if anyone tips on their chair they have to remain standing for the rest of the class

I'm mean.

Is it just me or do high school girls get sluttier & sluttier every year?

No you're just getting older, which means the less slutty ones wont sleep with you anymore.

I'm the same way, it's pretty stressful. This applies to going to shows also, if you bring along someone who isn't as familiar with the music. I'm constantly worried about their enjoyment level and what's going through their minds rather than enjoying the music.

And I'm probably 6 years in the other direction, same still applies. Weird.
