I am BLANK Years Old
A new trend in the social media world is to post how old you are by giving references to the things that were around during your "younger" years. I think it's absolutely hilarious and gives us all that bit of nostalgia. Whether you are "McAlisters Deli" old or "Shakey's Pizza" old.
I turned to Facebook last night on a whim, asking my friends how "old" they are. The results were a HUGE trip down memory lane. I started it off with
