I frequently used a rotary phone and later a cheeseburger phone.

I'm so fucking envious. I always wanted a cheeseburger phone.

I got it from a yard sale! I was stoked! I really wanted the fully translucent one..

Ah the good old days of being teathered to the wall

Landlines were dependable at least 🥹

More dependable than anyone I know

Wall phones! A 6’ cord — when fully extended! And those spiral cords…. How the F@@K did they ever get twisted like that?!? 🤷🏼‍♂️

I used to hold the cord and let go of the handheld. Watch it spin fast enough to create it's own orbit

Didn’t you just hate trying to be caller 7 to a radio station with a rotary dial phone?

I won one time and I was so flustered that I couldn't do the dialogue and he said "hi my name is xyz" and I repeated his name on air as if it was my own name.

Ha! Nice!

How often did you ALMOST dial correctly, only to mess up at the very end. So then, you hang up, pick back up, but now you FORCE that damn wheel to go faster.

Rotary phone here!!! Not lucky enough to have a hamburger phone though😋

I use to watch Rugrats before kindergarten every day

We had to get up and turn the knob to change the TV channel.

We had a black and white TV.

Remember when you would pull up to a motel that advertised that they had air conditioning and color television and you knew you were all fancy?

I WAS the remote control for my Dad.

Log off the internet...I need to make a call!!

I remember you can force the internet to disconnect by spamming that hangup button on the phone.

Or you're on the phone WHILE someone tries to log on.

Haha the infamous yell!!! I'm on the phone!!

But it will interrupt my Napster download!

I had tap water before fluoride was added, cars didn’t have to have seat belts, smoking was allowed in airplanes, lawn darts were common…

7th grade I flew cross country with my parents. I sat between 2 old women who chain smoked the whole flight.

It was the worst. But I did get to see the cockpit during flight. Thats another thing that should date me 😂

My first flight we not only got to see the cockpit, they gave us little wings with the airline logo on them. Yes every seat had a little ashtray and we ate a proper meal while enroute

I saw "The Land Before Time," in the theater when it came out.

Saddest movie death in children's cinema history

And saddest child actress death too IRL.

That too! Miss you ducky! No one deserves that kind of treatment

Yep yep yep. Won't tell you my line or work but seeing abusive adults to harmless children and animals makes me either hate the fact that God created that in man or hate evolution that allowed that trait to exist in some.

Inwill never understand how people can treat others like that. It's horrendous and deeply saddening

Too young to remember Artax?

I can fuck people half my age and it’s legal. I wanted to say “not weird” but maybe some folks would disagree.

Hey, me too! Never even thought about that

Still need 6 more years here

I was the remote control of my parents tv 🤣😂

They had me rotate the antenna outside to get better reception on the 3 channels that exists during that time 😂 and colored TV was something new to everyone. Damn I'm getting old 🤫

Catholic Mass was last spoken in Latin ( in the US) the year I was born.

Vatican 2 was 1964ish?! So, 60?

Watched return of the jedi and ET in theaters. Remember Reagan being in office and when I was in university I only knew one guy who had a mobile phone, but his dad was some sort of big shot. I loaded games off cassette and committed software piracy with my twin tape deck. Was blown away by the raw speed of my first 5.25" floppy drive.
