Sort of, I was playing World of Warcraft and they introduced a class called Death Knights. Basically a skeletal warrior, i tried the name Deadhead, a pun on the class and Grateful Dead fan. Unfortunately this name was taken so i gave it a Scottish twist, hence Deidheid.
I became attached to the tag and used it for games and named accounts.

This happens to me all the time. Also the related “yeah I know him! We worked together a few years ago” and realizing inside it was like 23 years.

Darn effin’ tootin’ I do. We also had an AMC Hornet. My Dad loved their cars. We almost bought an Eagle in '86, but for a few non-automotive reasons we didn’t. I still regret that to this day.

I had an AMC AMX back in the day.
On one occasion I went to pick up a date and the girl’s father came out to look at the car. When he saw there were no back seats, just faux fur in the back, he told me I wasn’t taking his daughter out in what he called a shaggin’ wagon 
Super fast 0-60 MPH in under 4 seconds.
And remember when AMC also had a car called The Machine:
Those were the days you could get cars like this for under $8,000 Canadian new.

Just like these 3 Hornets I have owned over the years, the blue one was my first car.
I then owned the orange sedan, and then bought the wagon.
They have always been one of my favourites

Minus the flames… and its notable absence of primered and unpainted fiberglass patches, that orange Hornet wagon is EXACTLY like ours was

You know you’re old when … every time you fart, you have to check your drawers to see if you got a surprise.

Worse: when the ‘oldies station’ is playing frickin’ Nirvana and Pearl Jam…my kid’s bands…in addition to the Doobies and Fleetwood Mac.

…you’re sad that a movie and video rental place is ending its services. (yes, video rental is still a thing here.)
This one is truly sad though. That location in particular is not only iconic, but has a really phenomenal music rental selection. One example for Techno geeks: they have the entire (or at least , much of) Warp Records catalog on disc for rent. Rephlex and Astralwerks as well.

I had my gall bladder taken out in 97. They don’t tell you that if you sneeze or cough hard, you are a threat to shit your pants. I found out the hard way…several different times.

You go to update your PC and discover that CD/DVD players are not available on most brand name computers anymore. This is a major issue for me right now.

A $26 external cd / dvd drive will probably solve your problem.

I remember the days when you had to use a PCMCIA card to interface external CD-ROMS with your laptop. shakes cane
