Are you glad ??
Jump to: Newest in thread
I had this very conversation yesterday as I was having a wax - she was saying that she had to delete her Facebook when she opened her salon as she didn't want clients seeing some of the stuff on there, I said I'm glad I'm old enough that none of the stupid stuff I got up to was recorded and broadcast to the world |

I'm on the cusp at 31....but FUCK YES!
If smartphones had been popular just a few years earlier, I dread to think what horrendous evidence would be knocking about |

I'm glad i had a childhood without all the technology. I don't feel children are children for long enough now days, they're so quick to grow up and don't get to enjoy the outside like we did. |

Some aspects yes, others no.
As far as mobiles and cameras are concerned then yes. Had a great time in my late teens and early 20’s at raves, all-nighters and football shenanigans. The thought of that being caught on camera would certainly have stopped my career in its tracks. Also if you got a hard time at school it ended when you went home. Nowadays it’s 24/7 |

" That's so true , but they still have that choice . The outside is still there for kids , they just choose not to imo |

They still have more childhood than kids of 100 years ago and prior to that. I'd rather see a 5 year old with an iPad than up a chimney or rook scaring |

I have evidence but its kept in a box in the house. Used to keep a diary in my teens/twenties.
If social media had existed not sure if I would've used it anyway as it just annoys me.
Went onto Facebook in the early days and just didn't like it (although I would've been 34 by then). |

Torn on this... on one hand smartphones and the Internet offer much more opportunity to expand horizons, learn and be part of global communities. Growing up in a small town that is an exciting prospect...
But on the other hand, with all the porn on tap, you would lose that magical moment of finding a jazz mag in the bushes. Just wouldn't have been special. So for that reason, I'm glad I grew up before smartphones. |

"Yes and reality t.v. stars, obsession with looks, the expression "this season's must have", fast food and HIV."
Dont even get me started on reality celebrities.

"So glad..... even back then there was always that one person with a camera and a few month later you’d see sine pics, but on the whole no evidence or being wasted and very few dick pics " No dick pics |

I spent quite a lot of my childhood, teens, 20s etc. on technology.
I grew up with computers in the house and spent an inordinate amount of time on them.
I've seen them go from something that filled a garage to something small enough to wear on your wrist.
I always preferred inside to outside anyway. |

"For those of us of a certain age ....

Many memories, no evidence "
Absolutely. And the fact I was ugly as hell back in those days. I am like a fine wine.....thank the lord there is very little evidence!

Oh god yes. Though I know there used to be a few pics of me on one particular naughty night out. Think the lady that had them is no longer with us so hopefully they’ve been destroyed.
Would certainly ruin my reputation as a good girl x |

If I had a smart phone in my twenties and posted pics to bookface and twatter of what I got up to when I was in the military on nights out I probably would have spent a lot of time banged up in MP cells

Was chatting to one of my mates the other day about this subject. We were discussing me finding her in a compromising position when the foam from a foam party started to dissipate
We laugh about it cause it's in our minds, thankful there were no photos of our girls holiday |

"Yes, just to be able to take it all in rather than film it....."
Agree the last gig I went to, I was one of the few who didn't have my phone in my hand. Actually have no pictures at all of it and I'm glad |
