Signs That You've Had Too Much Of The 90's:

(Is this still funny in the 00's? I wonder what you think of it...)

  1. You try to enter your password on the microwave.
  2. You have a list of fifteen phone numbers to reach your family of three.
  3. You e-mail your work colleague at the desk next to you to ask "Do you fancy going down the pub?" and they reply "Yeah, give me five minutes".
  4. You chat several times a day with a stranger from South America, but you haven't spoken to your next door neighbour yet this year.
  5. You buy a computer and a week later it is out of date.
  6. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends is that they do not have e-mail addresses. (Oh yes, there used to be such people in the 90's...)
  7. You hear most of your jokes via email instead of in person.
  8. When you make phone calls from home, you accidentally insert a "9" to get an outside line.
  9. You've sat at the same desk for four years and worked for three different companies.
  10. You use words like "real time."
  11. Your biggest loss from a system crash is that you lose all your best jokes.
  12. Board members salaries are higher than all the Third World countries' annual budgets combined.
  13. It's dark when you drive to and from work, even in the summer.
  14. You see a good looking, smart person and you know it must be a visitor.
  15. Being sick is defined as you can't walk or you're in hospital.
  16. Your relatives and family describe your job as "works with computers".
  17. The only reason you recognise your kids is because their pictures are on your desk.
  18. You read this entire list, kept nodding and smiling.
  19. As you read this list, you think about forwarding it to your "mates you send jokes to" e-mail group.
