Do you believe you're a person of the 21st Century? Or a person of the 20th Century?

I feel like I'm mostly the 20th Century type.

I'm a 22nd century person according to my robot psychologist, but I think he's got his wires crossed.

21st.
I'm too young yet to know where life might lead me in this century.

In the 30th century or the 3rd Millennium where on a distant alternate planet of Earth, anthropomorphic animals and humans coexist. Where cyborgs and sentient robots roam around making their own civilizations. Where science and magic both correspond to one another and traveling to different dimensions is a normality. Yes I'm talking about Mobius (Sonic the Hedgehog's planet). Because regardless of the century... I don't feel like I belong on this planet. So based on the year that the series of the comics started is what base the kind of century person I am. I don't feel really suited in the century we're in now...it lacks...stuff and I can't really connect much with contemporary beliefs and values.

I think... :| Sometime earlier than the 20th century, and later than the 21st century.

Yes the present era don't seem to match me well. The past era would had something to do with my upbringing... And I do think the others around me in my life almost the same way.
And perhaps the future would've individually match me better.

I was born in the last quarter of the 20th century, so I guess I'm a 20th century person in the literal sense. But who cares? Let's tuck into that big, juicy hamburger. :mrgreen:

20th - I like privacy, I like actual paper books, I like to keep crucial records in a format that won't suddenly become capriciously inaccessible (i.e., paper) and I do not trust the Internet of Thingies one bit.

That being said, I loves me some Interwebs, but Arpanet got started a long, long time ago.

And I have 2 cells, no landline, but that's because landline's been "improved" and now, when a storm takes out the power, the landline goes too. Didn't useta. Stayed on in case of emergencies. So why bother with it now?

I don't know. I pick being an Imperialist that pulls into the drive thru with a plane and ordering a big bomber hamburger. Hahahaha.

20th Century, definitely. I find it very hard to get my head around people's dependence on mobile communication etc., and I miss the way that personal, retail and business interactions used to be more face-to-face and less rushed all the time. I used to struggle keeping up with the pace of life and the pace of change as a youngster, and even back then was probably considered quite old-fashioned in my attitudes by my peers. I don't expect to keep up with it all any more, and I'm perfectly content to cherry-pick the little bits that give me some satisfaction.

21st century, since I barely remember any of the 20th. And I'm addicted to the internet. Though I also have an old-fashioned, sentimental side.
