⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for the guy talking about reviews! I’m a host at a restaurant and someone reviewed me because they were late and brought an extra person than expected at 7:30pm on a Saturday night and I had to squeeze the extra person at their table per the manager. It was handled and I got a shitty review, incredible.

[@meilee8554]

I work in a hospital and we get tons of bored and grumpy people who want to report office folk to the board of nursing (most office folk are not medical professionals at all so it's useless) over themselves not being put in the ER/ICU over a broken toe because someone was in there for a diabetic seizure or a heart attack. Spoiled spoiled people.

[@rustylee1836]

I find the reviews to be incredibly useful. Of course you're gonna have outliers but if a place has boatloads of 1 star reviews, take heed and steer clear. I change it to show the most recent and read the last ten. Insanely useful, there are thousands of places I want to try, no need to set myself up for disappointment

[@MichelleJohnson-tg5lx]

Answer that review

[@posarandposer]

@@rustylee1836 I find all the 3 stars sincere. All the rest are dramatic. Im all for reviews if the person is not trying to get someone fired. There’s a place for all that and it’s not online.

[@rustylee1836]

Riiiight only the people that find a place mediocre and average are sincere. So all review should be 3 stars and we should have no idea what pleces are better. There is a legit wide range. A hotel with bedbugs and bad customer service is a clear 1. The 2 little shops that amaze me time and time again are clear 5s. If you think everything deserves a 3 you haven't experienced much or your brain is very very weird. I presume the 5 star rating in your original post is *intentionally* ironic.

[@savagestan2543]

Anybody remember that shoulder rest for your phone receiver so your Mom could talk on the phone and cook at the same time? Or how about waiting all week to watch a movie you read in TV Guide was coming on? And, lest we forget, that beautiful visualization of your cassette tape hanging there after your player ate it. I used to have my player hooked up to an old car battery with a rubber band I found to make it go, and speakers held together with finger nail polish.

Using cassette tapes was character-building. The hours we spent making the perfect dB level recordings from LPs so we could play them in our cars... and then our tape decks ate them. Playing that cassette afterwards with the wrinkle in the tape was a constant reminder of a successful, surgically-precise recovery using whatever tools were available: pencils, screwdrivers, tweezers, girlfriend's skinny fingers, etc.

[@kathyputman5160]

try reconstructing an eight track...whole different story...but, doable.

[@TheWhisperTexan]

[@jmccoomber1659]

So true! I remember gluing just the right number and weight of coins on top of the record player needle to get it to play through a scratched spot on the LP without skipping, and being so proud and joyful that I could then listen to the song on the cassette without the skip. I'm revealing my age when I remember the song was Carly Simon's "You're So Vain." And spending $50 for that "high tech" device that you put the cassette tape into, then plugged the whole thing into the 8-track player in the car. It was truly magical when they started making cassette players that played the reverse side without having to take the tape out and turn it over. ;-)

[@freewaybaby]

[@heathermiller5765]

The first time I learned someone my age couldn’t read a clock was my freshman year in high school (about 17 years ago). Probably commonplace now, but I had never met anyone who couldn’t tell the time with a regular clock. I was genuinely perplexed lol

[@dgwooten7]

I'm 21 and can read time on an analog clock, not difficult at all. Don't know what low iq young people y'all have been around but it sounds pretty bad

[@ThatGuy-vb5dz]

Im 22 and I specifically remember learning how to tell time on those round yellow toy clocks in kindergarten. The funny thing is, when I was 5 I thought that 2:00 on a digital meant 200 o'clock.

The guy at the 20 minute mark with the post office bit is SPOT ON. I have a package, WITH TRACKING, arrive at the Post Office and they updated its status to delivered. To my P.O. Box right there in the Post Office. It never was. I fought the Post Office for 2 months trying to get my package from whatever black hole their processing area is to my actual P.O. Box. I still don't have it. And they had the unmitigated to send me FOUR customer satisfaction surveys asking how well they resolved my issue. They didn't. Now I have to call a number in Washington D.C. & basically claim they stole it to get any further action. All because they are INCOMPETENT.

Many thanks to you and your skeletal crew for continuing to scroll through the old clips and posting for us. Y'all are THE BEST!! 👍 😂 👍 Funny story? Four sibs, mom and dad, and an African Grey parrot whose very large cage was in the living room. We're all at work or school during the day. I was in HS. He learned to repeat the sound of the phone ringing. Ugh! 😣 One phone, short cord in the living room. In the afternoons, weekends and evenings, school days off, summer vacation... we're all at home. The phone rings... IT'S FOR ME! NO, IT'S FOR ME!! Dial tone... It was Baby Grey. If he wanted some company, he'd "ring the phone" sound. Not funny when you have a house full of teenagers, but it sure got Baby Grey some attention... MOM!!!! 😂 We hope that your Friday and Saturday night shows continue to stay open with the Delta, the Mu and now the Omicron viruses spreading like wildfire around the World. 1/2 of the 50 US's States have reported the Omicron - 1 hadn't even traveled to southern Africa, and only 70% of Washington State is vaccinated. When do we Americans get another spike? Mid January. 2 weeks after New Year's Eve. 2 weeks after Valentine's Day. 2 weeks after Memorial Day. Ditto 2 weeks after the 4th of July, Veteran's Day, Labor Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and yet another New Year's Eve. Stay safe and well, everyone, ok?

Some of them anyway. I’ve known some boomers who can build an awesome gaming computer from scratch and program it too and others who can’t save a contact on their own phone. I think a lot of people forget that some of the most innovative tech was developed by boomers… anyone heard of Apple? Tesla?

[@badbiker666]

I'm 62. Whenever I get a new phone, which is about every five years, my first stop is my daughter's house. When I got my first smart phone, by the time I got there, I had 45 open tabs and no idea how to close them. Every time I swiped the screen to close a tab I was apparently opening a new one. Ooops! I still don't know what an emojii is for. I know smiley faces and I know hearts, and I know thumbs up. That's pretty much it. I know what LOL means and I am pretty sure I understand LMFAO. There are a TON of other millennial abbreviations, I have no idea. My kids know better than to use them when texting me. Or use emojiis. If they do accidentally, it prompts a call from me. "What?" I thought the arthritis was going to make me feel old. Nope - it's the phones.

I think the over 40 crowd doesn't understand HOW QUICK tech progressed because.. I Was born in 1994.. I remember twisting the tape with my pinkie, Not because it was the tech at the time, CD's were in and computers.. BUT that tech was still around, and you could use it in the car, We used a mix of tech so under 30 We get it lol, We used phones on the wall with cords.. and cordless, and cellphones all in the same era.. I still remember my moms pager, I remember an era where they started making everything plastic with see through fun colors lol Example the same thing old macbooks were made of, They did that with the "new" pagers, But cellphones came so fast and people still had leftover pagers. Maybe it's because I remember age 3 onward which isn't too uncommon. But.. Us 20 somethings GET IT.... It wasn't that long ago lol Oh and digital cameras with limited film.. I brought them when I was 9 To a vacation.. My gen also went through a polaroid phase.. Guys... It wasn't that long ago haha Tech just moved FAST!
