In my view, if you remember these things then you are very lucky to have lived those years. The meme that mentions giving you something to cry about is related to a conversation I’m having with some brainwashed dolt on Instagram this morning. This person believes that disciplining your child is abuse.
My reply was that we grew up having respect for our parents, elders, and people in general. The politically correct army has brainwashed this poor bastard and I feel sorry for him. This kind of thinking will only lead to more anarchism. I am so grateful that I was born in 1960 and have such great parents and family. Amen.
I do remember all these things…
So true. I still remember making mixtapes and how they took forever to get right.
I had a little box with slots in it to hold several cassettes, kept it on the floor behind the passenger seat. Always ready to jam some Van Halen!
The good old days! Someone had a video on Facebook and it showed pic after pic of all the things we grew up with, very nostalgic
And do we wish we could roll back time to live those years again? I do.
Yep… me too
I rode my high handlebars banana seat bike until it actually fell apart! ♥
I love that, Teri! I had the banana seat and the tall bar behind the seat too. Fun, wonderful days!
Remember them all! Most of all I miss the handle opening a car window. The second bis maps, I love maps, paper maps.
The old Atlas maps on paper were fun to read, I liked them as a kid. I prefer electric windows in my truck, but the motor is one more thing that will eventually break!
Electric windows are great, but I would like to have a handle, too. I still have many maps and mapbooks.
How quickly we can become obsolete!
I don’t feel obsolete, I feel smarter than so many younger folks today! Our Publik Skrewel system is a joke.
Remember them all! I could never operate a rotary phone now. 😕
Those were great days! I’d like to try a rotary phone again. Kind of like driving a manual transmission car or truck, kids today may not have a clue on how to drive it!
