Remember when – @Anonymous
A computer was something on TV
From a science fiction show of note.
A window was something you hated to clean,
And ram was the cousin of a goatMeg was the name of my girlfriend.
A gig was a job for the night.
Now they all mean different things,
And that really mega bytes.An application was for employment.
A program was a TV show.
A cursor used profanity.
A keyboard was a piano.Memory was something that you lost with age.
A CD was a bank account.
And if you had a three-inch floppy,
You hoped nobody found out.Compress was something you did to the garbage,
Not something you did to a file.
And if you unzipped anything in public,
You’d be in jail for a while.Log on was adding wood to the fire.
Hard drive was a long trip on the road.
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived.
And a backup happened to your commode.Cut, you did with a pocket knife.
Paste, you did with glue.
A web was a spider’s home.
And a virus was the flu.I guess I’ll stick to my pad and paper
And the memory in my head.
I hear nobody’s been killed in a computer crash,
But when it happens they wish they were dead.
