What Were You Doing On June 4, 1986? (4 June 1986)

[Maserati7200]

Hey, if you existed yet, what were you doing on that day? How has your life changed since then? I know this might sound silly but this question is really important to me.
What was I doing? Well, I didn't exist yet as i was born on July 7, 1993, 7 years and month too late.

whats so special about this date?

 

[McGiord]

I was 12 years old, and I might had been doing anything like this:
1) playing with my dad's Mac Plus
2) drawing in MacPaint or MacDraw
3) Watching a World Cup game Mexico '86
4) playing with some friends
5) playing with the atari 2600
6) fighting with my brother
7) watching Mazinger Z on TV

 

[Techhie]

Transcendentalist thinking says I was at my wisest.

 

[Ttownbeast]

Learning to masturbate and girls were no longer icky.

3) Watching a World Cup game Mexico '86

Check.
Probably fit some studying for finals (sophomore year undergrad) in there somewhere.

[Zombie Acorn]

Probably being an *******, I was 2 afterall.

 

[flopticalcube]

Cranking out code for a telecoms firm in Cowtown. Listening to tunes on my Discman D-50.

 

[Peace]

Looking into the future and deciding what I would be doing on Feb. 12th 2010

 

[StephenCampbell]

I was at one with the universe. My spirit had not yet landed in this body.

Hahaha just kidding. I mean, I wasn't born yet.

 

[0098386]

Probably sleeping, like a baby.

 

[bartelby]

Well I wasn't doing what this guy was:

Jonathan Pollard pleads guilty to espionage for selling top secret United States military intelligence to Israel.

I was probably sat in my room listening to Metallica...

 

[OllyW]

It was a Wednesday so I would have gone to work during the day time and would probably be in the pub on the evening.

What's so special about this day?

 

[Galley]

I was 21 and enjoying the awesomeness that was the '80s!

 

[mattwolfmatt]

I was just finishing up second grade.

What does one learn two days before the last day of classes, anyways?

 

[-aggie-]

I was 21 and enjoying the awesomeness that was the '80s!

I was 26, and missing the real awesomeness of the 70's.

 

[dmr727]

I was just finishing up second grade.

Me too! I don't remember what I was doing, though - probably getting my butt kicked by those purple Wizzrobes in Zelda.

 

[Jweate]

I was a twinkle in my dads eye!

 

[leekohler]

I had recently come out of the closet, been cut off financially while in college, was deaiing with anti-gay death threats, and struggling to find a job. I was literally going to soup kitchens. Somehow I kept a smile on my face. Things have gotten much better since then.

 

[yg17]

Probably barfing and crapping myself, I was 2 and a half months old then.

 

[Rantipole]

I'd really like to answer this question, because I have a pretty good idea what I was doing, but I'd really like to know why this day is so important before I do.

 

[fireshot91]

Well, I wasn't born. But my brother was born a month later, so I'd probably be at home helping my mom with random tasks/playing with her stomach (Not literally you pervs)

 

[Foreign Feeling]

I wasn't born yet

 

[colmaclean]

Probably playing on my Commodore 64.

 

[bobr1952]

Well it as a work day so I guess I was at work on Beale AFB in California. I probably did a run at lunch time since I did a lot of competitive running events in the 80s. Other than that, I doubt it was much different than any other work day in 1986.
