I had my first Nokia 5110 before 3310 became a thing. Tell me how old you are without telling me how old you are.

Mixtapes. Oh god the mixtapes. XD And waiting with bated breath for your favorite song to play on the radio so you could smash your finger on the “REC” button on your boombox.

and now, i got the music... tin tititin tititin tititin tititin titin tin tin tin tin

58008 haha

Remember when it used to start slowing down and you knew the battery was dying, noooooo,!

and Final Fantsay 7 <3

I'm glad these are making a comeback. Now we need more roller rinks opening up again.

REW... PLAY... REW... PLAY... FF... PLAY... for hours on end! Trying to get each and every song lyric just right... writing them out with pen and paper to share with friends... long before the days of the ubiquitous printing of lyrics inside every cassette jacket... thanks for the delicious throwback, mmmmmm...

The original bondi blue iMac would have been a more appropriate choice. The style of the Mac you choose better represents the 1980s.

Okay but - sideways jaunt - is anyone else here watching the series Andor? I started loudly yelling that the “navigational tool” the group was using on Aldhani was a Polaroid SX-70!

I remember this!! My brothers and I had one

I actually still have this and to my surprise, my kids love it

Back when kids could have fun with non-lethal, totally safe water guns.

I had a keyboard that would play the “William Tell Overture” if you pressed the DEMO button. I briefly fooled a few friends into thinking I was an exceptionally skilled pianist by pretending I was the one playing XD

why am i getting pixar vibes lol

I still have mine, it doesn't work anymore but I keep it becuase it had beena birthday present from my little brother

Now they sell them solved. It takes the fun away and I don't want to mess up a solved Rubiks.

And we all thought this was going to be a thing by now.

Almost forgot this was a thing - very cool nostalgic illustration!

lots of breaking nights playing Atari. Good times.

The number tho

Still have my dad's old Voigtlander 35mm camera with manual everything (focus, aperture, shutter and wind). Had to carry a separate light meter to work out the exposure. Took many many holiday photographs for my dad and then for me.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the impeccable details in the logo stamp.

Okay, I know that some of these aren't strictly from the time period they were supposed to be, but the author did work hard on them and I don't think they deserve to be downvoted. The shadows are super good and the detail is impeccable; that deserves an upvote in itself (note that this is my opinion and you don't have to agree with me; please don't feel pressured to up- or downvote anything!)

My parents kept thier record player, not sure if it still works though

More like from the 50's to the 80's...

This was actually well past the nineties - 2007 to be exact!

I remember when my dad let me use his cans of spray paint. I was filled with joy at his trust. I promptly got gold spray paint all over the concrete in the backward because I tried to spray-paint a 2-by-4 on the bare ground. XD I learned about covering your workspace that day :p

That stuff was nasty.
