I wonder if Gen Z, Alpha Gen, Millennials will ever truly appreciate buying mixed lollies from a milk bar or the horror of ruining your favourite record, tape and CD because we owned them in every format.
Below are ten old school questions answered by twelve year old Christos.
What is a Commodore 64?
A car
What is a collect call?
Um no idea
What is a rotary phone?
A very small phone
What is a burnt CD?
A CD that has no music on it
What is dial up?
When you call someone.
What is Myspace?
It is your personal space.
What is a VHS?
Um very…. no idea can I Google it?
What is vinyl?
Vinyl? Is it something expensive
What is a cassette?
Like a seat..you sit on it
What are the Yellow Pages?
Just yellow pages in a book or like Post-It notes
Don’t worry the new gen have lots of things like Uber eats, TikToks, air fryers and an abundance of cash they nick out of the old gen wallets. Stay young Westies!
