Who wants in? We can talk about what is was like to write a letter to your grandma or having no other way to ask someone out other than by calling them on the phone. Or checking out movies at Blockbuster or whatever your national equivalent was (we usually checked out videos at the grocery store, actually).
We’re cool because we can actually remember the USSR and “East” Germany. Although not as cool, I can remember when homophobia and transphobia was so much more widely accepted and the “default” position for most Americans. Not as cool.
lmao yeah I used to prank call people from the phonebook on my house’s landline phone. It’s not like they could ever find out who it was
We uses to use Arnold Schwarzenegger sounds boards. Danny DeVito too, I think lol. Any memorable pranks from your youth?
omg I completely forgot about the existence of soundboards but yes we did that too! Putting the phone up to the computer speaker hahaha
lolll loved that so much. Okay, now my moomer identity is intensifying, caught myself being like “man, that shit was so fun and definitely something zoomers are missing out on”. Oof. Although I guess they do hella prank tiktoks now so maybe the method has just sublimated lol
