    Back in my day, space exploration was seen as an obvious necessity.
    Everyone stopped what they were doing to watch Nasa launch humans into space.

    I had a "three on the Tree" 1963 Ford Falcon I bought it used for three hundred dollars in 1982. It didn't have any seat belts because they were listed in the owner's manual as "optional equipment"

    Back in my day your phone number had letters of your exchange, our exchange was Crestview so our number was CR7-0108.

    From a kid to his father "dad, why do people call them cordless phones"?

    Back in my day you had to lick your stamps, pretty much everyone accepted personal checks, carpooling meant cram as many kids as possible into the back seat, and hand sanitizer was called soap and water.
