  • Hi Guest - Did you know?
    Hot Topics is a Safe for Work (SFW) forum.

Attention Signs you're getting old.

When you never posted on social media websites, because you couldn't be bothered to set up an account and never saw the need.
I spent a long time on stuff like Reddit and some other website, and now that I'm in my thirties I'm just finding it way too angsty. If I'm gonna be talking about adult issues like relationships, sex, politics, economics etc.

I get all these bitter lectures from a kid who has little-to-no education or experience with that kinda stuff and I just finding myself not even wanting to engage with it anymore. I was nostalgic for message boards and I figured they would be a little more popular with people my age, and older.
 
More like 1984 I think. Just for the price of the portable CD player. Just that there was a portable CD player.
I think that 1984 would have been too early for that CD player. CD was pretty new, period (unleashed on the world in 1982/83 depending on country). And at first, it would have been very much a home format. Sony apparently did start making a portable CD player in 1984, but it would have taken time for RadioShack to follow. I'm not sure about CD player pricing, but I'm thinking far more than $200 for a home player then, let alone a portable.
 
I remembered this video that apparently promoted Philips CD (they were the original inventor), which shows a portable CD player back when they were not slim and sleek! The video is set to play about the point the portable shows up, but I found the whole video interesting when I first saw it.

 
Yep. 1984 would be too early for that Radio Shack ad. I rummaged in the file cabinet and I found the owner's manual for a Realistic CD-3100 portable cd player. I must have it somewhere. I have the manual. $140 in March 1989 and it by the model number, that put the Radio Shack ad in 1990 or 1991.

So anyway. I had a Magnavox CD player deck for my stereo that was even then, with prices having come way down, fucking stupid expensive. 1985 I think. Just HAD to have it. Especially since it lasted a whole four years. Just $100 per year.

Sorry, can't get closer than that. When an appliance dies the owner's manual goes with it. So, no looking up when I bought my first Betamax. That was a sweet VCR. The first VHS was a Hitachi. Top loader. Wired remote. March 1982. Still worked like new a couple of years ago.
 
^ Sadly, ou don't have to be old to develop arthritis.



I was told when I was 16 I had what would be called arthritis when I turned 18. It goes by another name when a kid.
 
I have alcoholic rheumatism. I keep getting stiff in the joints.
 
Arthritis refers to the joints. Rheumatism refers to conditions which afflict the joints, bones, tendons, muscles, etc.

I think the distinction is between rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.




No it didn't have rheumatoid, osteoarthritis or arthritis in the name at all. My mother had a back ground in medical stuff and she had never heard of it. That is why we were told it would be call rheumatoid arthritis when I turned 18.


Of course they always could have been speaking out their ass. It was Kaiser Permanente and they had crappy doctors and other staff. They got a few of my other issues diagnosed wrong for awhile.
