19 Things Kids Today Will Never Have




1.  Making a mix tape


Recording songs off the radio, DJ intro and all.


2. Rewinding a tape


And then messing the tape up completely.



3. Prank calling people


And not worrying about getting arrested for harassment.



4. These drinks




5. Dodgeball




What's not fun about being hit in the face with a ball?



6. Arcades



RIP.



7. Unsafe toys


Toys are so much better when you can get seriously injured using them.




8. Music on MTV


Before reality TV… there was music.



9. Using a phonebook


When you have your name in the phonebook you ARE somebody.


10. The dial-up sound


Music to my ears.



11. Not knowing who is calling



Before Caller ID ruined everything. Also, before payphones disappeared.



12. Using film



RIP cool pictures.



13. Actually needing a watch


Now it's more a fashion thing.



14. Changing the channel


Standing up? Screw that.



15. Making your first website on Geocities


And also MIDI music. And Creed. So good.



16. Actually memorizing a phone number


I still remember my friend's house phone numbers from years ago.



17. Going out and being off the grid


Remember when your parents had no idea where you were? Not anymore.




18. The Walkman


Or any other music listening device that didn't hold every song you have.



19. Fixing a casette tape with a pencil


The most fun you can have with a pencil, right?
