The current estimate is that 3.5Bn people have never made or received a telephone call. Should the I AM THE 99% folk restyle themselves I AM THE 49%, BLOODY LUCKY TO NOT BE THE 50% AND STILL ANGRY WITH THE 1%.
Not quite as catchy I guess.
Oh and on the age thing.... if you remember the "Buy British" campaign and regular power cuts. Both of which will be back in fashion in the near future.

Ooh, I remember that too. We live in multi (what you'd call a tower block), and we had to get home every night before the powercuts to avoid having to walk up to the 8th floor in the pitch dark. And my Dad only recently replaced his washing-machine which had a "Buy British" sticker on the front.

Ah yes, the Buy British campaign was so big they had to get the Chinese to produce all the merchandising crap. Do you remember Buy Blitish?
The last time I felt old was when discussing one of my favourite bands, some whipper-snapper said 'oasis, way before my time'. At this point I gently told them that modern music is shit and when i as younger we had proper music, then realised I sounded like my Grandad which made me feel worse.

Before its demise, I had to stop watching ToTP after hearing myself say the words,
"Call that music? It's just a load of noise. And can they not just stand and sing it, do they have to jump around like that?"
I know, I should take myself off to the nursing home now...
