View Full Version : Blast from the past
A new 20 something hire was wearing and style smart watch today or I just noticed it today.
An old school Casio calculator watch.  I haven't seen one of those in person for 20+ years.  I asked her about it and she has been using it for about 10 years.
So again old tech is new again for gen z?  Record players, vinyl, knitting, mechanical clocks, ect.  All tech Gen X left in the past for better tech.

I had a version of one of those. I didn't wear it so much as keep it in a pocket note pad. The calculator came in handy for calculating square roots and multiplying by pi. I hope she uses it for more than figuring tips.

I remember those but never used one myself. I?ve always used the g shock series. Seems like since cell phones became popular watches went out. Now with smart watches and fit bits they been making a come back.

You didn't go for BOOBLESS? That's a right of passage.

I still have a Bradley Mickey Mouse watch I got when I was 4.  I'm now 52.  It doesn't quite fit now though.

No, that’s the price of gas in a few months!!!!
I had to draw them out and turn them upside down. I believe it was a 5.
Damn phone autorotates! Hahahaha
vintage

There was 1 girl, she was 16, she 69’d three guys and then she was loose.
11669x3 = 35,007. Turn it upside down.
I'm actually kicking around the idea of getting another turntable and buying more music on vinyl. I'm getting more nostalgic as I get older. I also think it's nobody's business what music I'm listening to at any given moment.

.... Every 20 min you had to ?interrupt? what action you had going on in the bedroom to put on more music. Vinyl ain?t worth the hassle.
Time for that classic juke box
