The "anything" thread

It's amazing how newer generations assume things we used to believe 'impossible' and take them for granted.

My 2 year old son, for example, can use a laptop since he had around 19-20 months. He knows how turn it on, open Chrome, click on the youtube shortcut, how to use the touchpad to browse through all those youtube videos he likes.

When I turn on the TV, he asks for his favorite cartoon (Jake and the Pirates), and throws a tantrum when there's another cartoon on air, when it's just a click away on the computer.

As a kid, I remember I had to see any crappy program the TV was showing, waiting patiently for the time when they'll show Saint Seiya and Mazinger Z.

When I was a kid, I used to like every single cartoon I saw on TV, I was like "The Cable Guy".

I remember one day when I was staying over at a friend's house, and we were waiting for Dragon Ball Z or Captain Tsubasa (I don't remember), but they aired Heidi before that, and my friend was like: Dude, don't watch this, this is for girls. And I was like: **** you, I want to know if Clara gets to walk again.

That reminds me of the time I gave my non-touchscreen phone to my sisters two-year old, and watch how she tried in vain to make something happen by swiping the screen with her fingers :D

Yeah, happens to him when someone gives him a blackberry or something like that. He disdainfuly gives the phone back :D

It's amazing how easily kids absorb tech
