Omg i could only remember 2/25 of everything there.... you guys are definitely older than dirt... i remember hearing of those things from my parents and even my grandparents used to tell me of those things...
This is gonna be a lil different as I hail from another country, but my mom used to tell me about how they could survive on 20c a day, my grandad still has a RPM(?) player in his house and it WORKS!!! When I was a kid, my grandma would take me to a chinese coffee shop where she would have a coffee with her mates and poured some onto the saucer for me to drink. the coffee isn't the same as those that we get from starbucks nowadays, it's not fancy but it was strong. Basically it was black coffee, no milk or sugar with hot water. I remember the days when putting a person on the phone on hold meant placing the reciever on a box that played music and when mobile phones were basically bricks that were used as weapons to ward off potential thieves. I remembered the day when the first cyber cafe was opened and prior to that we had shops that had video consels that we paid some money in order to play any game we wanted.
