Older middle millennial here.

Only one that I didn't know when I was younger was the flash cubes (thanks Technology Connections yt channel), and I can't quite tell the one to the left of the remote.

Top middle never used since family doesn't drink. Played with my dad's old cap gun as a kid. Chalk lines were used in school, grandpa had a TV with the remote, never used the 8 track but know about it, didn't grow up in an area with drive in theaters, the picture viewer things played with as a kid, first couple cars I had had manual windows and the lighter (gives a good burn on the thumb if you were dumb playing with it). Have had places use the card machine. Good electric griddle. Didn't use that film. Know 35mm film though. Nut cracker set looks nice but I prefer my grandma's bowl that had a mini anvil in the middle with a mallet.

Edit: wife that is 2 years younger than me says the one I didn't know is a makeup mirror thing with lights? So girl thing.

Fuck all drone flyers for totally fucking up the RC airplane hobby.
 
grandpa had a TV with the remote

Have owned and/or used them all.

The TV remote has metal rods inside that were struck when you pressed the button each making a unique ultrasonic sound to mess with the power/channel/volume ... no batteries ever, a modern tree huggers wet dream. The origin of the term "clicker" because that's all you heard was the click.

If you jingled your keys in front of the TV it would change channels or turn off and on like it was possessed.

Made a dorm room stretching pull tab chain. However, remember, I was attending a Presbyterian Christian boarding school, so they made me take it down. Being 100% donor supported they were understandably a bit touchy about appearances.

Now, that we‘ve gotten the pull tabs squared away, who remembers a church key. (Much less the vaunted P-38).

I have been carrying a P-38 on my key ring for more than 40 years . . . and use it almost every day.

Since about 1981 for me, still works great.
I found some at an Army/Navy store an gave one to every scout in my troop. No Sh!t, a local troop had a kerfuffel with the Council Representatives because the grub-master didn’t think/know to bring a can opener on a campout. None of those boys go anywhere without a P38, Leatherman, or Swiss Army Knife now.

Wait.
Full fucking stop.

So you mean to tell me that NOW the vacuum port is actually on the upper side of the brake booster like it should have been back when I told you that was how they were assembled ?

Huh, go figure that one eh ?

Funny how now the master cylinder doesn't look like it's trying not to fall off a cliff by pointing downwards at that funny angle it used to.....before I told you that shit was ass backwards.
 
i think they were intended for women to drink from, and they werent any good for fat fingers

But they would definitely break a nail.........

I used my house key to pop them.

It was a bad marketing ploy not only for their poor design but it forced you to drink slower.

Either drinking from the can or pouring in the glass it slowed things down. Last thing they need if the goal is to get a second or third can in your gut.
