Back in my day, you had to saddle a horse, pack a bag, and spend six hours getting to town to play a game of checkers with another human being. Now all I see is whining because you are disconnected from a game for 15 minutes. You entitled kids have no idea. NO IDEA, I say!! Mr Epeen 🕶 ---

You had a horse? Back in my day, we hadn’t even domesticated those animals. You had to walk barefoot for 6 days to reach the cave of a neighbors just to play stones, And not were you mad if you left your good old whacker-smack stone back home. Oh and you had to avoid the dire wolves and saber tooth tigers! ---
