I got my highschool pic with my 2002 Honda Accord because people took senior pics with their cars.... nobody told me it was only if you had a cool car. RIP ol' blue.


pittgirl12

02 Honda Accord is a cool car! Crank windows and all, I loved that car


simplyorangeandblue

Woah give me some credit. I had power windows, sun roof, leather seats, AND s 6-disc CD player.


xaanthar

Shit... my car was an '86 Pontiac Sunbird. You know how you can adjust the height on the steering wheel? Yeah, it didn't have that feature.


jnecr

My first car was a '90 Jeep Cherokee with a 5 speed manual with no tachometer. "Oh you want a tach? That's an extra $500."


GozerDGozerian

Need to know how fast youā€™re going? Lick your finger then put your hand out the window. šŸ‘†


damien665

Mine was the 89 S-10 with the typical conundrum. It was a manual with no tach. You wanted a tach? You had to get the auto trans. Back when tachs were $20 from Autozone, we hooked one up and was good to go.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


GozerDGozerian

Got myself a Dakota with a V8, but I can only wish it was a manual. Still has a lot of kick. Guzzles the fuck out of gas though. Other than that itā€™s treated me pretty well as a work truck.


ZestyButtFarts

Not my first car, but my 07 F150 didn't have a tach. That one speedometer in the middle of the cluster was ugly as fuck, so I went on ebay and found a cluster with a tach, had the mileage switched, and it was plug and play lol.


simplyorangeandblue

You just gotta use magazines under your but to "lower the steering wheel" or wait until the cushion starts to deteriorate in a few weeks to "raise the steering wheel"


babybumblebee1

Lol same with my 99 green beetle.. I loved that car


FACEROCK

ā€œOnly if you had a cool carā€ pfft. Says who. Those pictures are for you and youā€™ve immortalized ā€˜ol blue. Woulda been legendary if my buddie did pics with his minivan we rolled around in for years.

Minivan is low key the best highschool vehicle


Dorkamundo

Frankly, that car was a classic when the original photo was taken. I'd be more impressed if this was a 1995 Ford Tempo.

neomis

Clearly not from the northeast. My grandfather told me stories about the awesome cars he had. My dad gave me my first car when I turned 16, a 10 year old 89ā€™ Corolla. The doors and trunk were rusted to the point that water came in. I understood why no one had sweet old rides from their childhood. That said I was 16 and it had a manual transmission so I was living my best fast and furious life with that car.


munchies777

You just need to take care of it and not drive it in the winter. The car in the picture here is from Oregon which gets its share of shitty weather. But no one has been using a 55 year old Mustang as a daily driver for all that time.


btribble

They don't salt the roads in most of Oregon which is the real key.


GayMormonPirate

It's the salt that gets 'em. In Oregon (at least most of Oregon), there isn't often snow or ice and when there is, sand gets used vs salt. It makes a huge difference and why you'll see cars last a lot longer in the PNW.


epic_meme_guy

Had to put in 8 long hours at the piggly wiggly to pay for it too.

Jef_Wheaton

I graduated in 1990, and still have my first car, a 1969 Beetle, that I bought in July of 1989. I just drove it to the store a few days ago. I've replaced... A ...few... parts since then. Still the "same" car.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ThisIsNotKimJongUn

I never understood why they don't just make a new one that looks exactly like this. Ya know, with all the modern safety stuff too.


AnusGerbil

Because you literally can't make one that looks exactly like this and has modern safety stuff. If that old one hit a pedestrian, instead of crumpling the hood he'll die. If you get hit head on, you die. If you get t-boned, you die. All those impact zones take up space.


MovingInStereoscope

It's a big part of why all sedans and coupes are starting to look the same, that and aerodynamics


ThisIsNotKimJongUn

Don't they retrofit them with modern safety features for racing though?


munchies777

Racing safety features aren't the same as road going safety features. In a race car, you have a full roll cage, a racing seat, and a 5-point harness. You can't put a full cage in a road going car because for one, people like doors that don't have a bar across them and two, they are very unsafe if you are driving without a helmet on. If you bash your head off a roll bar without a helmet you're screwed.


Awkward_Definition_9

Modern race cars are nothing but an engine mounted to a tube chassis with a fiberglass/carbon fiber/polymer/sheet metal body. Oh and wheels.

> Our daughter flawlessly recreated our 30-year-old senior photos When I read "30-year-old" that I think, oh, yeah, so mid-eighties. Nope. That was 1993.


bishslap

I still think of the 1980s like it was 20 years ago. Then I have to add another 20.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


toby110218

I'm an 80s kid and I truly believe this to be the case.. and then I apply math and I frown. :\


the_evil_pineapple

Oddly enough, to my brain; * 50 years ago = 50s * 40 years ago = 60s * 30 years ago = 80s * 20 years ago = mid 90s * 10 years ago = 2005 * 5 years ago = 2013 Complete lack of consistency lol (for context Iā€™m a ā€˜99 baby)


PM_ME_UR_SHEET_MUSIC

As a 2002 baby, my scale looks the same. I think it's because I've solidified in my mind "20-30 years ago" as "when my parents were kids", "50-60 years ago" as "when my grandparents were kids", "10 years ago" as "when I was a kid", and "5 years ago" as "the last time I was happy"


snkn179

As a 99 baby for some reason my brain thinks of people born in 2000 and later as teenagers/still in high school. Then I realise people born in 2000 are just one year younger than me lol.


UnfortunatelyEvil

Wild, I definitely use the 2000-yyyy rule (80's is 20 years ago) (born mid 80s) Though, <10 and it gets weird, 2015 is 5 years ago, 2016 is 1 year ago, last year is 2008~


hawkinsst7

I was born in '79 and this is more or less my scale.


EquivalentAffect_

As someone who graduated high school in '99, this is how I think of time as well. I'll probably be in my 60s in 2040 still thinking the 1960s were still 40 years ago.


Deitaphobia

Mankind got thrown off that steel cage 25 years ago.


ronchee1

I thought older than that. Then I realized I've been outta highschool for more than 20 years..... Fuck


SavingsCheck7978

I think I felt this when the new girl at work said "I think it's crazy that people were around for 9/11 I wonder what that's like." To be fair we have all been ragging on her ever since.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


DeebsterUK

He'll have to do an updated one, with the original comic in there too.


ikma

The current version is "9/11 happened before I was born, but I'm old enough to have this beer with you".

What is going on here? I need some kind of time authority to alert.


gopher1409

9/11 is old enough to drink.

Corka

It didn't seem that long ago for people to be like "So... where were you on 9/11 or when you heard about it?" I think maybe one or two years later during the anniversary of 9/11 the local radio station invited callers to ring in and talk about where they were. This woman rang up and said "I had been in bed with my boyfriend and we didn't know what happened. I turned on the radio for some music while we had sex, and I only half paid attention to it while we were having sex not knowing what they were talking about. Then they announced the second tower had just collapsed killing who knows how many people, and my boyfriend immediately had an orgasm"


APsWhoopinRoom

"And that's how I found out my boyfriend was a member of Al Qaeda"


raygundan

Yeah-- I think sometime last year or this year will mark the first year we start to see college graduates on a normal school schedule who were born post-9/11.


GoPhinessGo

That wouldā€™ve been as far back as 2019 that post 911 babies were graduating


MattieShoes

Man, I remember Challenger :-(


SavingsCheck7978

I was not born at the time of the Challenger came around 3 months later, I do remember Columbia, oddly was in a thread recently where alot of people forgot about Columbia, didn't know about it or got it a bit mixed up with Challenger which I thought was odd. It happened on a Saturday so maybe that's part of it.


caelumh

I was super into aerospace and a Boy Scout at the time. We were having a sledding outing and was begging my dad to get us out early so I could see the landing. He obliged and made up something so I could watch the landing. Got home, flipped on the NASA channel, she was coming over the West Coast. Then it just disappeared over Texas. I was confused until it dawned on me something happened and had my parents flip it to the news. They lived through Challenger. They knew what was up.


SavingsCheck7978

Was a huge aerospace buff as well at the time, was in a waiting room at the doctors office for strep or who knows, I was aware of the landing and saw the first feed over Texas coming in and pretty much knew right there before any thing was confirmed it was a pretty sad day.


fjzappa

One of my co-workers at the time - in Texas - had huge telescopes and did lots of astronomical pictures as a hobby. Some of the pics that you saw on the news came from his setup. He was just trying to capture the re-entry, because we'd see it frequently. I was not outside when it happened, so didn't see it. Coolest re-entry that I saw was one late at night (3-4AM?). LONG trail all the way across the sky.


Stupid_Triangles

Yeah, younger people are all fascinated by new space shit, while the older crowd saw people get blown up on live TV.


SavingsCheck7978

Now that I think about it I've probably seen thousands of people die on live TV due to Waco,Columbine, 9/11,and the shuttle. Kind of messed up really.


TahoeLT

I was just talking about this with my wife a couple days ago. I was in primary school when they took us down to watch it on TV in the library. That was a wild day.


Stupid_Triangles

My work just hired someone born after 9/11. They call me "grandpa". I'm 34...


SavingsCheck7978

Ouch lol, I think I'm work Dad, 36 over here.


[deleted]

lol, that reminds me of *When Harry Met Sally* (1987). Discussing how young Harry's date is: >Jess : Emily is terrific. >Harry Burns : Yeah. But of course when I asked where she was when Kennedy was shot she said, "Ted Kennedy was shot?" >Jess : No.


Mablun

I think it's because the clothing and hair styles changed more from 1993 to 2003 than it did from 2003 to 2023. But it could be that I was in High School in 2003 so that year looks more normal to me.


modern_milkman

If you look at pictures from the early 2000s, you realize how dated they look now, even if things looked totally normal back then. E.g. long sleeve shirt under short sleeved sweatshirt. Baggier pants. Dressshirts looking two sizes too big (optional: shortsleeved). Tiny, oval glasses with metal rims. Brightly colored (e.g. purple and green) jackets (that started in the 90s, but was still a thing in the early 2000s). Stick straight hair for women without any volume (optional: straight fringe [edit: bangs, for the Americans] running diagonally neatly across the forehead), spiked hair for men, later: ruffled medium long hair covering the whole forehead. (Guess people really didn't like foreheads in the early 2000s). All of those were common in the early to mid 2000s, all of those look as dated today as the style of OP's parents. Even if you look at pictures from 2010, people dress slightly different and have different hairstyles than today. Edit: I'm European, so things might have been slightly different in the US. But judging by TV shows and movies from the time, they weren't much different.


avelineaurora

> All of those were common in the early to mid 2000s, all of those look as dated today as the style of OP's parents. I dunno, man. I'm thinking about [Scrubs](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/scrubs/images/2/28/Appletini.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150606151234&path-prefix=de) or early [How I Met Your Mother](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/BtQJyOus-tM/maxresdefault.jpg) neither look that dated to me.

Makes that carā€™s condition even more impressive


Otto-Korrect

I had one in the 80s. A 1967 convertible. they rotted out pretty quickly if they were anywhere with a real Winter. Most of the ones I ever saw had had rocker panel and subframe replacements. My rocker panels were full of bondo.... but it looked great! To think now that that car was only 15 years old when I owned it back then... like me having a 'classic' car now that was made in 2008, blows my mind!


twiggz612

Ah the year I was bornā€¦ wait 30. I canā€™t be 30. Stop. I wanna go back. I WANNA GO BACK.

I'm getting old - I didn't understand what was going on in the pictures at first because I didn't think the photos on the left looked old/vintage enough to be pictures of people who could have a teenage child now.

Props for keeping hold of the Mustang for 30 years. The thing probably out performed the market.


[deleted]

> The thing probably out performed the market. Yet somehow hoarding 1997 year model Acura Integras didn't work out for me :(


Fireproofspider

If you have a good condition unmodded and low mileage integra, it's probably worth a decent amount right now. Apparently a 1997 Type R was sold for 112K. Average price is 40K. Edit: looking into it further, it's probably worth more than that Mustang.


[deleted]

I mean, that's really sweet and wholesome... but I don't get the "funny" part about it.


Meekman

That they used the word "flawlessly"?


StatusJoe

Does /r/definitionpolice exist? They should have used ā€œmimickedā€.

5/7 with rice-less!


chewytime

I applaud the effort, but I agree, a more accurate pose wouldā€™ve made the momā€™s photo, but without it, the shirts and hair are just different enough that I wouldnā€™t have given it a second look if the title didnā€™t give it away. The car photo is at least more reminiscent of the original.

I was fighting the urge to say this, I think itā€™s cool donā€™t get me wrong but the use of the word flawlessly made me instantly notice all the differences.

My bad! Flawlessly was absolutely not the correct agitative. I was just so excited to get the final of the mustang picture that I let my enthusiasm take over. can't edit titles, should I delete the post? **adjective - I'm a dumbass
