These 30+ Memes Remind How Good We Really Had it Back in the Day
Nothing Sounds Better than Vinyl
Let’s be honest — is there anything better than getting out an old vinyl and record player and listening to some of the olden-day classics? Even with the development of technology, nothing sounds quite as good as vinyl.
However, in today’s world, you’ll struggle to even find new vinyl records for sale, as just about all music is downloaded to and played on the cloud. The youth of today will never truly be able to appreciate good music as the older generations did in the past.
Back When People Had to Remember Phone Numbers
Again, cell phones have become such an integral part of our daily lives that most of us wouldn’t even be able to carry out the simplest of tasks without them. For example, how many people would you be able to call without having your contact list in front of you?
Do you remember back in the day, when people had to remember a cell phone number if they wanted to call that person? Maybe that’s why our memories seem to be getting worse and worse with us — we simply don’t have to remember anything anymore because our phone does it all for us!
Texting in Code
Do you remember using the 0 to 9 numbered keyboard? It really was a skill to type out long messages to friends, as you would sometimes have to tap a button 3 times in order to get the letter you wanted.
For this reason, the T9 texting code was invented, with sentences such as ‘GTG SOZ, LU TB.’ If the children of today had to see some of the messages we wrote, they probably would have no idea what we were actually trying to say.
We Need New Role Models
It’s sad to say, but the younger generations definitely need to find some new role models. Back in the day, our celebrities were talented movie stars, self-made musicians, and incredible sports stars who did all the talking on the field.
However, the kids of today seem to be more enthralled by talentless YouTube and TikTok stars. Social media has made it relatively easy to become famous. This is why a lot of kids aspire to make careers out of essentially filming themselves doing nothing.
A lot of us reflect on the past with a sense of nostalgia. When we look at our lives today and, more specifically, how the world has changed over the years, it’s easy to miss what once was. Imagine being a young kid again, with few responsibilities and even fewer cares in the world. Below, we will be sharing some of the best memes that will remind you of how good we really had it back in the day. If you weren’t already feeling nostalgic, you’re about to feel it hard…
