Mom used to give us quarters to use the pay phone to call her to pick us up at the mall, or after games.

:mjgrin:

Being nervous to call someone’s house phone, and hoping they answered, instead of having to ask parents if you can speak to them

:mjgrin:
Recording shows on VHS, and getting mad when someone else in the house recorded over it

:mjgrin:

Reasonable weaves

:mjgrin:

Reading the encyclopedia to research stuff

:mjgrin:

People giving others their full attention, instead of everyone being on their phones

:mjgrin:

I'm old enough to remember the pagers and two ways along with cell phones that were about one third the size of your head were around as well.

I remember having to be a whole lot more social in 1990s too. You actually had to talk to people, because there was no phone to stare down at all night when conversation got short or during those awkward silences with people.
