Obsolete Things To Show Just How Much The World Has Changed - Part 2

[@kbramlett6877]

The M&M Santa commercial is still being shown every Christmas. Along with the Hershey's Kisses playing We Wish You A Merry Christmas like handbells.

[@fourlittlebirds6166]

It’s interesting to see exactly how many of these items are still around. There’s quite a few. The packaging may have been updated, but they still exist.

My 22 year old daughter in law works at a vape/adult novelty shop that used to be a Quiznos back in my day. When I told her about it, she said, "I have no idea what that is." 1998 seemed like yesterday to me 😢

[@allisoncorona84]

So, the digital alarm clock is obsolete ⁉️ Do you remember the ones that had each number on a little piece of plastic and went around the display window ⁉️🤣😆😅‼️

[@dawnkindnesscountsmost5991]

Yep I do, my grandma had one. I remember spending the night at her house, and that flip-number alarm clock was next to the bed, with a soft light behind the numbers; the sound of the flipping lulled me to sleep.

[@starling5188]

I still use my clock radio. It's easy to see at night without my glasses on. Yes, I'm a boomer, lol.

[@LaCaderaGato]

+2

[@tomskell9622]

I've had mine since 1980 and it still works.

[@h.smith.6586]

I still have mine. Lol

[@gaycramer2658]

I still have my clock radio and it works. 😊

[@bukka6697]

I would tune in a good A.M. radio station at night when I set the alarm. In the morning, the signal was weak and I'd wake to a lot of static and hissing, lol

[@paulbeck6410]

On a similar theme, I discovered Wal-Mart still has 35mm film. Dug my SLR camera out and restarted my old hobby. Stored the photo gear right and it still works.

[@Tracy81258]

I’m the caveman who still writes actual letters with a fountain pen on cotton bond paper and closes the envelope with real sealing wax and seal.

[@missflowerpower8724]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@PorcelainCactus]

I thought I was the only one left 🥺

[@missblondie7033]

No not a caveman at all handwritten letters are beautiful 🗒✒❤

[@kevinjohnston1957]

Not many can write cursive,

[@gothgirl4evr881]

#42: "look what i can do"😅 I do believe one of the couple waterbeds i had growing up was that exact one😅

[@RiverJames1]

Mapquest? Who remembers using an actual map ?

[@poundcake1019]

Some of these aren't obsolete, the 90 pitcher is still used, and how is the cast of 2002 Spiderman obsolete?

[@mightylara2372]

I still have my AIWA. The radio and the AUX function still work. She sort of keeps time. Her speakers and sound is just as good as day one. I’ll figure out how to turn her into a sound bar. Best 1994 Christmas gift ever.

[@heatherwolmarans8287]

The parachute guy! We used to launch them off the balcony of our 4th floor flat as kids, then race down the fire escape to hunt for them in the gardens. And do it again.

[@ivanleterror9158]

Also made our own with a handkerchief and a nut or bolt.

[@juliebaker6969]

6:57 Dairy Queen goes back farther than THAT. Back in the 60s my grandpa used to go get us a dozen Dilly Bars for a dollar. Back then they were only open from Memorial Day to Labor Day just like the swimming pools. I remember how upset he got when they dropped down to 8 for a dollar, than 6, then 4. By the time he was buying Dilly Bars for my daughter, they were a dollar EACH, and they had moved to a year-round store on the other end of town that you could actually sit down inside to eat.

[@RiverJames1]

That Tupperware pitcher is from THE SEVENTIES young child

[@Sjrick]

I still use that clock radio to this day.

[@fairygoth-mother7341]

#59 - the Dairy Queen take out stand -- the one in my area had a dine in area (no drive thru) but it did have a hitching rail and water trough out back so we could ride in, tie up our horses, get a treat, and then ride home. This was in the late 1970s/early 1980s. The store is still there, but the rail and trough are gone. The area is too filled in with stuff for folks to safely ride their horses to the store these days.

[@beckycaughel7557]

Have to ask you where do you live that you were able to ride horses Dairy Queen I think that’s great

[@fairygoth-mother7341]

@@beckycaughel7557 I'm in Colorado. The DQ is in Broomfield. We followed the railroad track right to the back of the store. Now, the tracks are fenced so you can't ride alongside them and the store removed the hitching rail and trough. It was a loooong time ago. I think the last time we went was in 1979 maybe 1980.

[@daisi4925]

My you brought back so many memories

[@elaineellis8099]

wow the good old days

[@ServeGod1st]

lol I still have some of these things 🤣

[@stuffyouotterlistento1461]

I'm still using that alarm clock! Granted, it's my backup alarm, because I prefer something gentler to wake up to these days, but it's still going after something like 35 years. I got it when I opened a bank account, if I recall correctly.

[@HansZarkovPhD]

I still have thesame clock radio in the thumbnail and use it daily.

[@laurelwells-georgia7124]

the house I’m living in now (1970’s) still has the green shag carpet with a rake

[@knightwhosaysni4873]

nice vid... brought back good, funny and strange memories... but that is life, isn't it... an assortment of memories that we have experienced.....

[@cybercat29]

I still have that alarm clock (16) that I got for Christmas when I was 16 years old (56 going on 57 on January 3rd). The radio does not work any more, but I can still set the time.

[@juliebaker6969]

2:57 My dad designed and patented that style of waterbed frame back when waterbeds were just comming out. He sold the business (waterbed outlet) soon afterwards and included the patent along with the business for $2,000 dolars extra. If he had kept the patent he'd have been a millionare several times over.

[@theresaromeo5484]

The baby bottle with the disappearing liquid is still alive n well. They still sell them n girls still want them. I had them when I was a kid n my granddaughter had some. She just got more last Christmas.

[@juliebaker6969]

0:50 I inherited that same pitcher from my mother-in-law, only in orange from the early 70s.

[@flemingboineau7613]

Anyone remember the "Book-it" program in school the teacher would give you a certificate for a free personal pan pizza from pizza hut after reading so many books

[@ashlymenard5780]

I can't believe how much things have changed. 😢

[@jerometaperman7102]

Has Subway changed its wallpaper? When did that happen?

[@PorcelainCactus]

It's true. My dad had that exact alarm clock/Radio 😂

[@arcticxabyss]

it's all fun and games until the water bed pops and water goes everywhere!! 😨

[@kalel311superman9]

i still listen to christina and britney after all this time i don't care what is popular i also listen to 80s music, i remember the car racing game, it was the very first video game i ever played, i remember those book fairs, the burger king kids club actually i forgot about them, pizza head i forgot some of these others i remember, anyone remember those machines where you put a quarter and they had NFL team helmets pop out?

[@grannym2880]

I literally just bought a 2 pack of the disappearing formula baby bottles for my granddaughter 2 days ago from a local discount store

[@_Pixiara_]

I still have quite a few of those around. Parachute guy, Sony psp, lol. Edit: book fairs are still quite common where I live.

[@kbramlett6877]

Every Bnman fan was crying fowl when Michael Keaton was cast as Batman. To put a stop to the fans' cries the trailer was released early and it shut everyone up. In my opinion, he is still the best Batman on the silver screen.

[@terryanding2735]

I still have my compact blow dryer, I got with green stamps!

[@ivanleterror9158]

I have a Dymo label maker and some tape bought with a book of Blue Stamps.

[@jameshampton1832]

Just a few days ago I was showing the young guy at work mt 1989 Mapsco. Still in my car glove compartment.

[@vickiesmith3021]

Thank you so much for your video.

[@Crazygirl0404]

The game "TIM" was amazing,you had to twist and turn your brain to figure out how to complete each level.

[@alihammington77]

This stuff isn't old enough to be obsolete. I'm currently sitting in the exact "Thinking Chair" as shown in the video, and it's in brand-new condition.

[@AutumnK]

12:10. Oh yeah, I remember. You learned real quick not to pedal barefoot. Ouch!

[@birdie8844]

I feel like many of these especially the toys are still around, just used by kids now like they were then

[@ktekc]

i still have the original Homeward Bound movie around here somewhere.

[@laurentryner]

Thanks for that. 😅

[@OcusticClear92]

3:21 I had the EXACT model of Sony boombox in 1985.

[@kbramlett6877]

I had the exact alarm clock as shown in the thumbnail.

[@rsmith3033]

i still use my clock radio an b 4 it was tha one that had tha numbers that wud flip over 😎

[@kbramlett6877]

Very soon, Burger King will be doing their version of the snack wrap since McDonald's permanently took it off their menu. From what I read, it will have more variety of flavors and have slices of tomatoes

[@tylergavin9341]

I Feel Old Especially Seeing The BK Kids Club 1999 😢😢 I'm 28 now

[@lindickison3055]

Still use my boombox, CDs, & cassettes. I had 5 brothers - must have had hundreds of parachute men!!!! And nerf dart guns.....

[@ivanleterror9158]

Still use VHS/CD/DVD player, Scott dual deck cassette machine, and professional manual speed turn table.

[@RubySinister]

Ah yes, #17, the Shirley Temple....idk about you guys, but my sisters and I used to pretend they were alcoholic drinks 😂😂😂😂

[@puzzlebox467]

I never had most of these because i was from Mexico

[@MyBelch]

Plastic water pitchers are obsolete? What do people keep cold water in these days? I'm so behind the times.

[@karenmbbaxter]

i still have an alarm clock and i like it.

[@dl8065]

I remember their old wallpaper azamat in New York City

[@Macs-l2k]

13:39 I had one of these!

[@charlesachurch7265]

Let's hope LSD doesn't become passe.

[@BhaaskarDesai]

Fireball XL5 :)

[@drawnhere]

Pretty sure gum isn't obsolete. 😂

[@dawnkindnesscountsmost5991]

Gum??!! No, no, no, that's been replaced by the rubber thingies on earbuds when they wear out, where've you been?? No flavor, true, unless you don't clean them first ("Alas, earwax!"), but one of those will last a good long time if ya don't choke on it. Even I know this, and I'm an elder GenXer. SIKE!!! 😂

[@chrisapedaile1112]

i still have a brown zune it works fine

[@krejados1]

These are all US culture items. Nothing from elsewhere in the world?

[@originalcinner]

I grew up in Britain. We had electric pencil sharpeners and toy baby bottles that looked empty upside down. And the school TV cart.

[@clairelevasseur9434]

Same thing as the fellow from Britain plus the fameuses alarme clock in Québec Canada !

[@christopherdean1326]

0:21. I remember a long time before M&Ms were even a thing, in the UK at least. 0:51. 70s at least, we had one when I was a kid (born '62) 1:20. Videos weren't invented till after I left school.

[@RubySinister]

Ps, I'd give my right arm for a console television

[@maggiesmith856]

What's obsolete about a clock radio ?

[@jrpanciotti8863]

you keep using that word, i don't think it means what you think it means Princess's bride

[@mineandmine4528]

I miss pizza but he foot

[@sandybruce9092]

Maybe because this was a video made in the US??? huh!!! Not to be egocentric, but perhaps people in other countries need to make their own videos!!!

[@redroseabc5099]

This is all too cool to me! 🕰️😁
