don't be sad that you're old enough to have played on a real life ps2, or even ps1-- be glad that 9/11, 2008, covid, and 2 diaperman potus terms aren't the most significant core memories of your childhood

What? I had a PS1 and PS2, and 9/11 is one of my earliest memories. ‘08 was also childhood suckery.

Covid + PedOTUS is a separate generation.

9/11 is my first memory that still has visuals attached to it because i vividly remember the room i was in when it was on tv. I own 3 ps2s as well

I might be stupid but it still doesn't make any sense to me

[–] Z745812939054@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

i'm old. when 9/11 happened i heard about it on the radio on the way to work. when the DJ mentioned it being passed on to him by his producer, he thought it was a joke or prank call. then the 2nd plane hit, and it wasn't a joke. when i got to work we all went into the boardroom and watched the news for about an hour, then they cancelled the day for everyone to go home and make phone calls

Then PS1 and PS2 weren't part of your childhood either right?

[–] Z745812939054@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

no. i got started with an atari. when i was in elementary school i had a famicom, which is the japanese version of the NES. PS1 came out when i was in high school

For real, I would feel like such a wizened sage if I was asked about the PS2 by some youngster!
