Do you remember when... Add to the list A virus was a sickness. A mouse was a rodent. A cursor was someone who swore a lot. Bad meant bad. |
Do you remember when Eastern Airlines was Delta Airlines #1 competitor? Do you remember Eastern Airlines, Allegany Airlines, Pam American (not the movie) Airlines, or Braniff Airlines? |
Do remember when remote pertained to a location, and not something you held in your hand? Yes, I remember Braniff! Do you remember TWA? And the Concorde, we can't forget the penultimate glamorous Concorde!!??? |
A hoe (ho) was a garden tool and sick was bad, not good? |
do you remember when we kept appointments in a book and not on a computer software program? do you remember when being disrespectful to your elders would get you a smack in the butt? |

Remember when THE LOOK from a parent meant something and stopped you in your tracks |
Do you remember PEoples airlines? Do you remember when being a good pet parent meant taking your dog to the firehouse for a rabies shot? Do you remember when tv was free (not expensive cable) and every one had an antenna on their roof (or in their attic like we did) |
Remember when you could stay at the same job your whole working career? When you could leave the house and not have a phone and everything would be ok? Halloween costumes were homemade and didn't involve the word 'slutty'? School kids were allowed to play tag and hug each other? **SIGH** I'm only 36 and I miss the good ol' days! |
When we recited the "pledge to flag" each morning in school. When we had prayer in school. When children played outside catching lighting bugs, instead of playing video games. When people talked instead of text. When everyone went to Grandma's house for Sunday Dinner. When we went to the Saturday matinee for 25 cents. When a candy bar was a nickel and you could buy two pieces of candy for a penny. When we wore a penny in our loafers. When we used rollers, ratted our hair and sprayed heavy with aqua net. |
When payphones were on every corner When phones had rotary dials "Party lines" on your home phones Phones had long cords on them |
Do you remember People's Airlines roller skates with keys that fit on your shoes the paddle with the little red ball attached with a string Clackers Wooden spin tops with the string…you would throw it and it spun on the ground |
do you remember when the school dress code was for thegirls to wear dresses and they had to be at least knee lenght |
When cameras took film When computers were huge and heavy When a tablet was something you took notes in When you couldn't find a Walgreens on every corner |
Oh my so many flash backs of my childhood, from ass whoopins to catholic schools and everything in between. I remember when shorthand was something you learned in business class in high school not the way people use letters for short terms when texting> Like: (omg, smsh, roflmao, mos, ittul, brb) :confused: I remember when your parents lap was the safest place to be in the car. There were no seat belts nor did baby's have car seats. I remember when Thanksgiving was centered around Family and not Retail or Profit !! :( |
