I was placing an order for the Born This Way record set when I came across this post: What is vinyl? What is vinyl??? It's an analog sound storage medium, you dolt. I am speechless. Back in my day, phonograph cylinder recordings were no longer common but I still knew what they were. Kids these days have access to more information than ever. It's just a Googlepedia away, dag rabbit. Back in my day, encyclopedias were printed on paper and they were expensive and needed to be repurchased every few years. You could go online to learn something if you didn't mind being assaulted by MIDI and animated gifs.

Back in my day, The Simpsons started out as 30 second skits.

Back in my day, people still took Vanilla Ice seriously.

Back in my day. the US economy was solvent. Btw OP, the vinyl will get you a nice profit in a couple of years.

Back in my day, cell phones didn't exist. Neither did the Internet.

Back in my day floppy discs were actually floppy. Then they came out with diskettes. I'm waiting for the day when I'm going to have to explain to my kids what the "save" symbol on most programs is...

Oh, I loved using phones back in my day. You'd sit at this chair specifically built to have the telephone on a little table, insert your finger on one of ten holes on a disk and spin that sucker down for each and every single digit of the phone number you were dialing. It basically took you longer to dial a number with a lot of nines and zeroes, because you had to wait till the disk got back to it's normal position, doing little "deet" sounds for every number. The bigger the number, the more "deets" it had.

zzzzzzzzzt! deetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeet.... zzzztt! deetdeetdeet... zzzzzt! deetdeetdeetdeetdeetdeet!....

Oh, and you could twirl your finger on the phone's cord while you talked and when someone called your home and you answered and it was for someone else, you'd holler that someone else's name and you'd leave the phone there, unhooked, while the someone else got his ass off wherever he was to go pick it up! No cordless phone in my house for many years! No taking it to the bathroom or your bedroom!

And remeber when TV sets had little dials on them? Guess who used to be the remote control back in the day? ME! That's who! If mom or dad wanted to change the channel, they nudge at me, so I'd get off my ass and change the channel... to one of the other five channels we had.

Cordless phones and remote controls made my life easier. Then again, I used to be slender back in the day...

Agreed, even I know what that is...and 8-track tapes(family had an 8-track player when I was younger)....and betamax.....etc.

So, back in your day, a day was only 15 minutes?

Back in my day... ah hell, it is my day!

Back in my day, days were really short, so we had to run around constantly. And dagnabbit that's how we liked it.

Back in my day, I loved commuting and sightseeing around town. Now with all the damned traffic from hell that makes the roads such wretched roads of scum and villainy, if I am not working I'd rather stay at home playing good old games.

Back in my day, Alex Trebek had a moustache.

Back in my day, I had my whole life ahead of me. :(
