We have all done THIS but you have to be older to understand the joke - LemmyWorld

I like the idea old people have that knowledge is somehow lost between generations. Like kids watched Guardians of the Galaxy and were baffled as to what sort of mystical device Star Lord was playing his music on.
There is also a reverse phenomenon. At some point older people are just overwhelmed with the new things and have no clue when younger people mention them. I’m thinking about video games specifically. Most old people ended their video game days with “asteroids” as an arcade game.
Some knowledge is lost between generations… I’m a car guy and couldn’t drive a car from the early 20th century without instructions and I wouldn’t expect today’s teenagers up be able to boot a DOS game without instructions… Heck, give them a VHS player and watch their face when there’s screen tearing…
I’m only 20 and I still get it
Gotta love Google.
Naw, I had those things when I was a kid.
I’m pleasantly surprised to see that !funny is the exact same as r/funny was.
