RIP Mr. Williams... you are and will be missed!

Me. I loved to listen to Genesis and Annie Lennox and follow the lyrics

I recently bought quite an expensive polaroid camera. It turns out that with a real camera, I take terrible pictures.

You remember how fast that "bubble gum" turned into a concrete like substance?

To be fair, we didn't have as much to look at.

I'm so much faster texting like that than on a smartphone!

As I've seen kids struggle with a mail box I fully expect them to believe you.

And still one of the best satires on TV.

Back when Pizza Hut was a dine-in restaurant

I remember when only ONE studio was named in the opening credits.

I wouldn't mind one now.

Still have it, still use it. Things from back then, (for the most part) still work.

We still had it up until a few years ago when the dog chewed through the power cord.

My dad still has an one that is 40+ years old and it still works

I had one of those in the 80s it makes me miserable. I was in the post office and I had to get up at 5am 6 days a week.

I still have 2 of them.

Had one where the numbers flipped over, was fun to play with when it broke. Loved having the above clock/radio.

Try wind up ones, perfect for chucking across the room 👌

My mom still has one of these.

Lost mine in a divorce. Wish I had fought for it. Miss that clock/radio.

I still have mine lol

I still have one of these somewhere. Dont know if it works though.

I had one that the numbers flipped over, kinda annoying when trying to go to sleep.

My parents still have theirs lol

I had this EXACT same model of alarm clock! And you know what? I miss it.

I still have one. Works great.

Not the world's oldest and like many folks, I've owned one. At one point they were like that one model of plastic lawn chair that you see in so many places.

I live in germany and my family has no connections whatsoever to the US and even my father still has one of theses on his nightstand

This is not completely accurate. This was the alarm clock of GenX. Boomers had those cartoon wind up alarm clocks that I could never figure out how to set.

I saved my allowance to get something similar (yes, I was a nerd)

I believe one of these oldies is actually on display in a museum somewhere already!

Billions of years from now when the Earth is a lifeless husk, these will still work.

One hand and two paws raised over here.

These made for fun bath time toys, and the doctor waiting room was full of them (and Highlights magazines).

Until rhe cat figured out how to work it

And the dark shirts in the sun

I shudder just thinking about the noise. It was worse when the poster fell on your head.

And then you would pretend to shoot laser beams like Cyclops

I just heard Kevin Hart in Jumanji 2, "I'm gonna *whup* yo a*s!"

I immediately thought of that one Doctor Who episode

Let me tell you the tale of the glass salad bowl in the form of..salad leafs. Every adult (35-40yrs) household had them when I was a kid.... and when I became an adult I realized they just turn up in random 35 years old households. Noone ever bought them. Last month we went to a thrift store and there it was... Since I have no parents/grandparents I was compelled to buy it...So now, at 37 I too have a salad formed glass salad bowl.

My 22 year old son and I will still make one in the Living Room and watch some of our favorite movies while sitting in our "castle" fort!

That's a bit of a stretch. A meal was about $2.45 here in Canada

I dunno. My mom flipped out when I got home from the store for her because I thought there was enough money left over to buy myself a chocolate bar. That was a scary day for me, realizing one chocolate bar could send us to the poor house. She often said NO! a lot and much of our outings were either free or very cheap, and she fed us porridge and soup a lot.

To my ears, they rang like a bell when you bounced them.

Don't know the intended purpose, but they were great tactile resources for people with sensory needs- my brothers had them on their wheelchair trays.

The Wendy's near me still has this sunroom, but they got rid of the tables with the vintage newspaper ads, and it's kind of sad because now you can drive by and see that there's never anyone in the dining room.

I can smell this, I can hear this, I can feel this... and I'm not sure I like it

It's-- it's beautiful.

Now I use them to make pretty suncatchers

We still have it here Capture-66...16f84e.jpg

Aha! See! See! "Fancy!"

I cried when my first tamagotchi died. I had failed as a father. I was about 8.

How has the guy with the hat in the upper left corner not aged at all???
