In the good old days they separated the retards from the normal students by putting them in the farthest bungalows. Can't have those tard germs spreading among the normal folks.

The old days didn't have Christ Roberts' brilliant mega-hit PC game Star Citizen.



This is an unfair comparison because the present doesn't have Star Citizen either and it will never be finished or functional or fun in any way

When you stopped watching a VHS tape it would remember exactly where you left off no matter how long it had been

Let's see Blu-Ray do that!

I loved how during the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, once it was over it would automatically start again. I don't even remember it rewinding. Kinda weird how it managed that.

Back in the day when a learned man of advanced age took a young man under his wing to teach him in the ways of eros it was considered a noble act. Now? Even priests can't teach young boys the ways of god behind closed doors.

If your audio cassette got mangled, you could splice the good bits back together with an X-acto knife and scotch tape. Try doing that poo poo to an SD card sometime.
