In all fairness the cars need that computing power to neutralise the stupidity of the average driver  ;D

I need one of those inadvisable decision avoidance systems.

Hi-C Ecto Cooler was one of my favorite childhood drinks.

The tiny memory cards for my camera hold way more data than my first several computers.

Not boasting but ARCHER has 300 terabytes of distributed memory which is kind of fun.

What’s ARCHER?
300 terabytes?
I have only heard of the highest storage unit to be 1 terabyte…

Sorry: ARCHER is the UK's most powerful supercomputer: 4920 computational nodes each with 64 Gbytes memory (I know you're good at arithmetic, Vicky, so you can do the math). We use it to run atmospheric aerosol propagation calculations: it is fun but you have to take whatever compute time they allocate and we can't afford reruns so there are some sleepless nights.

We are supposed to be playing the game, not geek-talking:.

They always played Twist and Shout at my birthdays but I hated The Twist with a passion.

Still don’t know for sure whether doc Hudson said beaver or not in his sarcastic reply to lightning McQueen in the first cars movie.

I liked Tang because the astronauts drank it.  Later in life, I found an appreciation for a different sort of tang.  And why did we call it pootang?  Because of that guy below before he lost his mind.  Wang dang sweet . . . . . .

Excuse me, do you have change for the phone booth? My pager just went off and it must be important because there's a 911 at the end?

Yes!

My friends were always "911"ing me on my pager.  And my car's ashtray always had spare change in it in case of emergency and I needed to use a pay phone.

A while ago, on one of my visits to Door County, I stopped at a gas station, and out near the road, was a pay phone, and I kid you not, there were people next to it taking pictures of it.

When you were planning on taking a road trip, you made sure your 2-way radio was up and running so you could monitor the truckers as they told everyone where the Smokies were.

What jetting are you using in your carb? I have two sets of jets for different altitudes.

That is all.

"Well i got my draft card today, I guess I need to laminate it so it dont get destroyed on accident.  Last thing i need is to be sent up river for destruction of government property. " looks in yellowpages for places that have lamination machine.  "Oh the grocery store has a machine." Goes to store and pays $0.75  to have the card wrapped in plastic.

This is not only going to make me sound somewhat old, but also a little stupid for my age at the time, but I remember, in high school, going on AIM and seeing "LOL" for the first time. When I asked what it meant, I seriously thought the girl at the other end was laughing at me.

lol. Do automobiles even have carburetors any more?   Rebuilt more than a few of them myself.

Last production car sold with a carb in the UK was a Subaru Justy, in 1997.

I remember getting my first motorcycle with fuel injection, fitted a thing called a Power Commander so I could adjust the fuelling with my laptop. It opened my eyes in a big way.
