I remember asking my folks why the TV Guide said a show was "In Color" but it was still black and white on our TV set.

Speaking of TV Guide... This one has the TV show Good Times on the cover. Was one of Norman Lear's shows. Good Times was a spin-off of Maude, which itself was a spin-off of All in the Family. Remember JJ's famous saying? Dy-No-Mite!  Check out that price; a whole quarter. |

Listening to podcasts and watching YouTube videos featuring dialogue (tutorials, unboxing, presentations): lots of nowadays teenagers set "Playback speed" (settings) at 1.5x to 2x because the "normal" playback speed setting is "for old people".

You know you’re old if you remember the marketing battle between
Betamax and VHS.

YKYOW you swing a hammer a few times (more than a few if I'm honest) and get a cramp -- in your elbow! Happened to me yesterday whilst wrangling the rear air springs out of the kombi. What a dirty, thankless mess of a job it was too. I assumed I had pulled a muscle, but the pain subsided after a few minutes -- whew! |

In my case, my dad lighting his Lucky Strike as we rode in the backseat with no seatbelts on!

Or me lighting a Marlboro. Filthy disgusting habit that kills people. Glad they’re not standard equipment in cars anymore.
