Teenage in 2008...

*Steps out of airlock*
 
My first was 8/7/2007 with the Sigma Six Kung Fu Grip Series 1 (note: grips still the same), Adventure Team Pyramid of Peril (note the team was just Snake Eyes), and 2007 Sinlge back set of 6 with Sinestro, Blue Devil, Vixen & More. No idea who the & More was since that have had more than 3 more characters and variants.

So same... except 30 pages only gets me back to June 2024. The history runs out in 2017 at page 82.. umm...

The oldest purchase in my 'other history' section is from August 2007 and appears to be the Super Hero Squad Zombie Giant-Man/Daredevil pack... so

That's how I feel with anyone born post 2001. If you don't know what 9/11 is without looking it up, you don't get to talk to me about shit.

But to be fair, depending on when in 2008, I was either 14 or 15, so technically, by my own rules, I can't talk to you about shit either.

Lol... please. In 2008 I was two years into my second marriage and my son, who graduates HS in two months was born
Psh. If she and I had a kid the year we met, both as adults, he or she would be 24 this year. We were together for 8 years before we got married. I was 28, she was 27.

No spring chicken here.
 
Ha. 2008 was the first time, and last time before this time, that I worked in a show with my buddy, when I met his mom who would wind up casting me constantly over the years and who I now work with. I was on the first of the three times I was engaged before I met my wife, I still lived in my apartment in Hollywood. I was 30. I recently remarked that current me would absolutely out-act, out-sing, out-fight and also run circles around my 2008 self.

My first BBTS purchase appears to be a Wedge Antilles exclusive figure, in 2005.
