    In Back to the Future, Marty goes back to 1955 from 1985.

    If you did that same time span today you would only go back to 1992.

    F^*K I'm getting old.

    F#$K. F%#K.

    Now I'm depressed.

    Well, I don't know what you were doing in 1992 but I was all modern and shit. Take that depressing crap elsewhere. I ain't old.

    Yep and the changes that occurred between 1955 to 1985 are a fraction of what occurred between 1992 and today but yet 1955 still seems like a much larger time warp even though not as great of change.

    To add to this, the signs for year born to purchase alcohol are now are 2001

    You shopping at the GAP and wearing a baja jacket with your Swatch does not equate into being modern. :D

    I always figured Papa was more of Wilsons Leather guy. Or maybe an Aussie duster and matching hat? :crackup:

    I'm still racing the same bike I had in 1992 and next year I'll be racing the bike I raced in 1981.

    Nope. Born in '56, but I have no real recollection of much before '59 or '60.

    But the changes from 1985 to 2015 in real life came nowhere close to the predictions in the movie with flying cars, gravity-defying hoverboards and Mr Fusion. But at least the Cubs did win the World Series. Thankfully the double necktie never became a thing either. Gah.

    I still have the same wallet I purchased at Wilson's leather in the 7th grade. Amazing how long they last when you have nothing to put in them.

    I had/have a duster (great rain gear for cold race weekends) but the hats were always basic caowboy.

    People in the next thirty years will talk about the 1900s by saying "nineteen hundreds". I'm going to feel like a dinosaur if anyone ever talks about us like, "He was born in nineteen hundred and eighty five".
