Going to the store to buy a CD of music. Renting movies. Being upset about missing a TV show episode (like in the days before torrents and PVRs). ^_^
BAH HA HA HA!!! Awesome. Facebook? or Commercials on TV (TEVO) or something.
Groovy girl.
they wont know CDs either i already have young family members asking if the can play my big cds referring to lps
I think analog clocks will stay.
Add 35mm film to that too. My three year old already has a digital camera.
Hold onto your rocking chairs, I made a sequel!
More things our grandkids will never understand.
And portable CD players. I’ve seen little kids sporting ipods everywhere.
analogue clocks will stay.. they reflect how time flows and let your mind imagine ‘in two hours time’
@Tim and Oliver: I hope analog clocks stick around, but I wonder if our hypothetical grandkids will know how to read them. I have friends who can hardly read them now.
Funny stuff here, and the update was great as well. as they say, there is truth in jest…
How to make change without looking at the cash register for the correct amount.
I’m only in my late teens and people my age already forgot what VCRs are! I remember when video stores only carried VHS tapes. Now it is all DVDs! wow.
I don’t even know what those things are! haha
Hmm, Well, I’m only 30, raising two kids with my husband. We have analog clocks all over the house and teach them how to tell time with them. We teach our kids cursive handwriting, we have a VCR and VHS tapes still and we get the daily paper…
How about the card catalogue in libraries? ‘Member those? They taught us how to use them in “library class” at school!
Don’t forget pencil sharpeners.
i grew up i think in the 90s im 12 almost 13 in december23
Love it! You spelled “cursive” as “cvrsive” in cursive, though.
