‘what was that actor’s name? well, guess we’ll never know’ *i could not stand this*
My thoughts exactly
That’s indicative of a personal problem
Me too! I mean I do indeed remember life before the iPhone, but I just realized there was a time when people would just kind of be OK with not knowing that actors name and it did not send them into an existential crisis and cause them to immediately grab their phone.😂🤯
I remember these days. I'd have to wait till it just came to me out of the blue, or I saw the actor in a side roll on Seventh Heaven or something and make sure to watch the credits
I know her face… but. idk her name
"we used to develop photos, now we develop depression" THAT HIT WAY TO HARD
Fr
Period 💀
He said dementia
@@Zavidar2 he said depression
Too
Why wait for the library to open when you had complete set of encyclopedias proudly on display on the shelves in the living room?
Mom's gorgeous, blue set was recently destroyed in storage. It was pristine, too (I'm 99% sure that out of six people, I'm the only one who ever cracked those babies open).
We just got rid of our set last year. 😭
Omg, that's exactly what I was thinking too! 🤣
@@alice_rabbit8345 They're a great source of information! Definitely "food" for hungry brains. I always walked away from an Encyclopedia "full."
I had a favorite volume from our encyclopedias. It was fashion through the ages with a bunch of beautiful illustrations. We definitely would read them for fun or to see how much the Louisiana Purchase was. 😊
“Let me get my receipt shoebox” *Best line, no competition*
We had one, it instantly flashed before my eyes lol
I still keep my receipts in my sock drawer. Lol.
Lol I've seen your profile pic before
I’ve kept receipt shoe boxes since 1992 (or earlier) . When a shoe box is 8 or more years old, its contents are thrown out & the box is marked for the next year.🗃🗄📁🗂
@@qualms9197 My mom definitely had a large shoe or boot box for taxes and definitely followed the rule of saving them for 7 years before discarding. In more recent years I think she's cut it down to 2 or 3, since most things are digitized now, even though she still uses a preparer.
who remembers printing map quest instructions and then losing their crap when they took the wrong turn and the paper doesn't redirect so you have to spend 5 mins extra getting on the exact route on the paper...fun times man
YES!!!
And Mapquest was so unreliable yet the only thing we used lol
My mom was always super strict about the printer, so I got in the habit of writing down the directions instead of printing them. I still do it to this day, lol. I rarely ever use my phone's GPS. 😅 It also sucks up too much battery, so no thanks.
if it's something i don't miss.... it's this lol God forbid if you didn't print the printer friendly version and it's ads in between every freakin turn lol

Back in the old days we just read all the ingredients on the shampoo bottle while sitting down and went "hmmm... Intreresting"
I remember when it was totally normal to have a magazine rack next to the toilet. There were even genres of books just for reading on the toilet.
I died at that line!
@@JUMALATION1 I still do this!
Literally watched this video while pooping. LOL
"Don't shake it too much it will skip" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣☠
I remember those fearful days
yea nothing worse then scratched disk.
Who forgot about the 24 package of AA batteries that you went thru every week running the CD players and asking or being asked for batteries 🤦♂️
I remember my first "Discman" (portable CD player you could clip onto your waistband and listen to CDs while you walked around). Skipped ALL THE TIME ☹
We're going back to CDs for home use and my 4yo is learning that he can't jump off of chairs onto the floor without the music skipping. He's also learning about scratched discs and how to care for his little collection properly. He thinks it's so cool.
@@bookgirl810s Why though? Can't you just get an mp3 player if you want to avoid phones? Or is it more of a nostalgia thing like vinyl records?
All of us old people (I'm 41) remember what this was really like. Waiting in line at Blockbuster, having to sit by the landline so you don't miss a call, needing to be at home so you don't miss your TV show (no streaming), going to bookstores, movie theaters and having actual in person social skills because you had no choice.
And waiting for your favorite song to come on the radio so you could record it on your blank cassette tape
Also you actually asked people questions and got to know them rather than look them up on social media or Google them. Plus you actually heard news from people and not just on social media feeds.
Oh my gosh cassette tapes. Sigh.. Having to rewind over and over and then getting a kink in the tape and trying to fix it and ruining your whole tape.
@@trybeinggr8239 I hated that lol. Your tapes getting their internal tape all knotted up was the bane of growing up in the 80/90s lol
50- waiting rooms so mind bending and no one knew what you did or were thinking… or really knew how you broke your are doing that flip in the backyard 😁
I'm 39 and, yeah, that's childhood. My mom and dad rarely bought movies for us. They'd always buy a TON of blank VHS to record everything on. 😆 The tapes would get so used and worn, that tracking wouldn't even help. I was really happy when CDs and CD players were invented, lol. I loved boomboxes that came with both a CD and cassette player. I think that's when mixed tapes were born. I miss my big boombox. Apparently my phone doesn't even recognize it as a word. 😆
"Addiction to distraction is the death of creative production" ~ Robin Sharma
Amen to that!
So damn true! I'm a very creative [old] person, but UA-cam and Pinterest take up lots of my free time.
@@MidnightSonnet same
I'm going to record that. Great quote!
True that. I have to force myself to ALLOW my brain to wander wherever it wants to go at least once or twice a day. I feel way more productive, have way more useful ideas and way less stress afterwards.
"I FINALLY have enough free time to go to therapy, which now I don't need therapy... because... I'm not... on... the phone" 😅

@@MattXC314 book
Bed, Comics, TV, comics, boomers/gen X will blame anything on something we have that we don't lol.
life before cell phones was bussin. it was a grand time. i’ve lived both and both are great but i’m glad phones weren’t around in my day, i wouldn’t have had the childhood/teen years that i had.
Same. Plus I'm especially glad my friends weren't constantly videoing me and taking photos and posting them on the internet for the whole world to see forever!!! For...reasons. 😂
@@ChanaRo613 yeah, no evidence of our shenanigans 🤣
I absolutely agree with this
Life without phones used to be a lot harder and more frustrating but we didn't know there was any other way so all those things were just normal to us and didn't really bother anybody. We were able to actually have lives though. I used to read books like I'd starve to death otherwise. Now I just spend most of my free time staring at a screen. The worst part is I know that it sucks but I still can't stop myself. Sometimes I delete social media for a while but then I feel like I'm missing out on so much because everybody else is on it. Smartphones are like meth that we now start our kids on as babies and you can't go through life without.
@@monkiram 💯 to everything you just said
The more technology advances the line of depression goes up. He’s really not wrong at all
Very true.
It definitely has something to do with social media. People only post the good things that happen to them, and other people see that and get sad that they don’t have what others have.
Because we aren’t interacting organically and it’s not natural or healthy.
@@MsBianca78 it’s not really that cause we do interact it’s bc of what ppl post on social media, like most famous men and women are skinny and ppl looking at that can be like, “hey I’m rlly fat” and get super sad and everyone posts all the fun things they are doing which makes you feel like you don’t do fun stuff like them
I have to agree. Sometimes progression isn't always better.
As someone who doesn’t have a real cell phone, I do many of these things including using a CD player. I also do the thing where you just sit there looking like a psychopath
why did you make this decision? truly asking out of curiosity.
😂😂
I did so many things before I had this phone If this ever happened I’ll just pull out my old vhs player I also I had a
CD player I would sit too Close to the tv and eat pop tarts while watching Disney movies lol I remember those days….
@@elenaspano5067 not my choice. My parents chose not to get me a real phone and I’m not old enough to have a real job so I can’t pay for a plan
Same here. I threw my tv out five years ago and don't have a cellphone. I now have to limit mayself on youtube usage.
I remember having to call 3 different people for directions to somewhere 20 minutes away. Writing it all down with pen and paper then trying to read it while driving. Getting lost was a common occurrence way back in the 90's.
It still is , GPS barely made it better lol
I enjoyed getting lost, but my children hated it.
My father still has his maps. I bought a few just in case there is a zombie apocalypse.
I got so lost my friend's mom had to pick me up wherever I was and drive me to their house haha.
I once circled around a mall in St Louis FOREVER because the instructions my husband had given me didn't include the fact that the mall had CHANGED NAMES several years before!!! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Used GPS for everything “Ive lived here for 5 years” hit hard 😅
He should have used use a physical map that even our parents hated using 😂
I remember driving and trying to read written directions. That was the old texting and driving
Right! I'm at the same address for 16 years and still use my gps lmao
I remember my parents printing off directions from the computer's mapquest and one of them being the "direction-reader."
Shoot, it was written directions, not gps! We thought it was cool when MapQuest came out!
Like what my parents said: “The good ol’ days”
Yeah..
Fr tho
They were lying to themselves that it was better back then
They aren’t wrong social media is a shitshow it’s the reason people are so addicted to their devices I wanna go back to the 80s or 90s when we weren’t addicted to our phones and social media wasn’t a thing and stuff I feel like I’m the only one on this planet that’s not addicted to her phone and can go a few days without it and eventually forget I have it and then when I check it i got all these notifications cuz I was away for so long lol and no I’m not capping lol
Lmao every generation says that. I was watching an episode of Leave It to Beaver and the dad mentioned something about missing the good old days (show came out around the early 60s, I think?)
I graduated high school in 1996!! I didn't get cellphone until 2004. I remember reading shampoo bottles in the bathroom!
I still do that

@@Migkamilla Search engines back then sucked. Don't lie.
Sounds crazy, but back in the day, if you didn’t know something and couldn’t find it out, it just didn’t bother you as much! It’s all relative.
But when you or someone you knew did actually remember it.... that was the most satisfying feeling ever to finally have the answer. Phones make it so anti-climactic. I remember it would sometimes be a week later and someone would figure it out. Ahhhh such a good feeling!

Hahaha! Some of these hit home for me. We chose to ditch our cell phones about 10 years ago. While we have moments of wishing we had the convenience, we're still holding out! So we're pros at map reading without a gps, twiddling our thumbs while waiting and accepting weird looks from everyone when they find out we are cellphone-less. Thanks Trey for the laughs!
You're really out here making me miss the early 2000s huh
I miss the 2000’s.

The 90s and early 2000s was the best time to be a kid/teenage we had the perfect amount of technology but we were outside all the time actually doing things... Cellphones were literally just there for us to play snake and so our parents could reach us.. Smh I hated school but I loved those times as a kid and teenage.
I had the high score for snake on my own phone… imagine that
90s kid here, I miss those days so much.

The song at 1:29 is Stay by The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber. Just for anyone who thought it sounded familiar but couldn’t peg which song it was (like me). It took me forever to find lol

"Now I don't need therapy because I'm not on the phone." Sheesshh, so much truth.
To us introverts, there is no such thing as just sitting, looking like a psychopath or bored.......that is the most valuable quiet time for us, and our minds are continuously going......analyzing, contemplating, fantasizing, daydreaming, wondering, remembering, trying to solve an issue, you name it.

Edit: I can't read road maps.
Life was much better before cell phones. It was great to go out and not be bothered by people constantly contacting you and needing to know your location. You could just disappear with no worries. Life was more fun and people got up and out and did a lot more socializing.
Until people did start disappearing. ☹ If my kids were still young I would definitely be tracking their phones with GPS!
Um that’s what my bf said before he broke up with me- that jerk
And before cell phones, if someone was talking with no one around them, they were usually just hearing voices.😜
You don’t have to answer the phone when you’re out.
It was also nice not having to hear people’s inane conversations and personal business. People have no manners or sense of things being private anymore.
* honstely how did our parenst survive like this? ill tell you how they had friends
Oh my goodness guys! This is the most likes I've ever had on a UA-cam comment, thank you!
I feel like the lack of technology and inability to entertain yourself 24/7 gave people no other option BUT to reach out to other people just to make it through the weekend. Now that need is all but diminished, and I fully admit I'm guilty of it as well. Today I can browse the internet, watch endless videos on UA-cam, binge Netflix, play video games and use my phone. With this constant bombardment of entertainment options and the convenience of having them from the comfort of home I find the effort of making plans, getting ready and going out to honestly be a hassle. I 100% believe I'd be much more social with less access to technology
I'm 33, but my family was always late getting new technology lol. We never had cable, we didn't get internet until I was around 10, and then we only had dial up which was soooo slow and there wasn't much to do on it, yet. (No UA-cam, Social media, etc.).... and my parents didn't upgrade until after I moved out for college. I got my first cell phone when I was 17, and it was a pay as you go little Nokia phone. So it was basically just for emergencies. I didn't get a smart phone until after I was married (22). All that to say, I had an awesome childhood. I have a super tight-knit family that had dinner together every single night. My siblings and I played outside for hours and hours, and we were all best friends with our next door neighbors and had a movie night with them every Friday night for years. We never had DVR or anything so we either taped shows on the VCR if we weren't going to be home, or we just missed an episode and had to wait for reruns to possibly re-air it. If there was nothing on TV, you would find something else to do. Play outside, do something creative, read, hang out with friends, etc. We did have a super nintendo and later a nintendo 64, but my my parents were strict about technology so we didn't get to play very often. I HATE how everyone is addicted to their phones now. I miss the 90's.
lol nooo....I have no friends & no license to be able to get any. Plus we don’t really live in the city either. 😭😭.
I’ve been wishing lately that we had roller rinks,arcades,comic book shops,little cafes & things like that.
@@forman208 Dude this hit me hard. But since covid came, it gave me psychological damage and I began to miss being in school with classmates and people my age, getting hugs, having conversations, and heck even just observing other people or just listening to their convos since all that was taken away for a while because of lockdown. It also made me realize that I do not really have close friends. I have always been nice to everyone around me and was like the popular but shy kid in school. I am still guilty of entertaining myself with techonology, but I feel like I am very SLOWLY wanting to reach out and go out more. I'm still pretty shy though and don't have the best social skills.
@@forman208 they still had technology back then like gaming consoles and computers and TV

Nice thing to tell your own son. Geez. You know that you can make plans to get him out of the house, right?

Yep I was out riding my bike in my neighborhood for hours on end and my mom only had a general idea where I was. Also riding in the back of the pick up truck with all your friends was a thing.
Yeah, my childhood was pretty free range. It's not really socially accepable to let your kids wander around like that anymore though, so mine mostly play in our backyard.

Ask her to leave it at home & tell her how it feels for you. She might not even realize.
It’s not the phone that’s the problem, it’s your mom. She doesn’t have to answer. She can call back later. This is why so many young people don’t make eye contact and can’t converse. They grew up with their parents ignoring them in favor of the phone. I’ve seen it for 20 years.

Thank you for making videos; it really makes a difference in my day. 🙂
Seems like “if we didn’t have internet” would fit better
In the before time, we really didn't run over to the computer to look things up online. 1 - because dial up was a pain and depending on how early this would have been set, you could have been paying per minute for internet usage, 2 - the internet search engines we used weren't as good as Google is now.
Not really. Because back in the day not everyone had internet + if u are at the event u wouldn't just leave to go to your home and google something.
@@ScarletHyena but that's what I mean....in this bit, is it just that we don't have cell phones as in smart phones, or is it that we don't have the internet? is this supposed to be back in the days of dialup or card catalogs? or is it the same world, just without smart phones/cell phones/whatever.
@@LayllasLocker but that's what I mean...is this bit based in just no cell phones but still having internet, even with dial up or ethernet cables, it was better than nothing. and is this bit just smart phones or all cell phones?

But I also believed Chris Isaak died in a plane accident (missunderstood it somehow) and 10y later when I came online I saw that he is actually alive. 😅 I was so happy to hear all of his new music.
"Our teens spend a lot less time today talking to each other than they did a few years ago, and a lot more time communicating with each other on their smartphones without saying a word. They post messages, photos, and videos. Waiting rooms of bus and train stations, airports, and restaurants are filled with teens texting rather than talking to each other." ~ Unknown
Lmao you’re quoting yourself
Waiting rooms of bus and train stations and airports would be filled with people reading or listening to headphones if cell phones weren't around. The notion that people were talking all the time pre cell phones is absolutely laughable revisionist history. I remember taking a train, flying, being in a waiting room, no one said shit to each other, they just distracted themselves in different ways
Dr rooms and hospitals you couldn’t go in the patients room because kids were full of germs and they didn’t want the patients to get sicker
But people still are communicating and talking to each other, they just don't have to be in the same room to do it
My daughter is 20 and she actually FaceTimes a lot…for hours sometimes. She texts and DMs a lot too, but rarely makes voice only phone calls.
MORE OF THESE PLEASE!
the HEALTH this radiates is ABSURD
i enjoyed watching the karma ad just because he makes it so fun and enjoyable which not many people can do
Me in the middle of my summer class: OOOOHHHH Trey Uploaded! *drops everything and watches Trey's new video*
"Just sitting there" why does it feel so weird to just be doing nothing 😭😭😭😂
The PRINTER! 😂😂😂 The directions, the tickets, the boarding passes!
1998 at age 27, I got my first cell phone, and without a doubt in my opinion, life was much better without them.
I miss these days…such simpler times 😭
You always nail these videos
I love the bits of laughing you keep in after you make a joke 😆
“We used to develop photos, now we develop.. ✨depression✨.”
When I was younger I would have these CD holders full of movies and now everythings digital
Lmafo I felt so called out when he stood up straight 🤣
"paper cut! don't you hate those?" "a what?" 😅
I honestly wish life was still like this.
You can choose to just not use one! Or just choose to minimize the use of your phone. You don’t have to completely get rid of it if you don’t want to. It’s so freeing and refreshing to LIVE life!
Yeah, that's true, but unfortunately in this new age, it's almost impossible to live life normally without it, my daughter's school does all online testing and work, my husband's job is 90% paperless, and no one I know hardly ever does life without a phone or lives in the moment. I honestly try to, especially out with friends or loved ones.
I need the flashlight...
*proceeds to list devices in reverse chronological order*

“If we didn’t have phones”
Uploads to watch on phones
Definitely accurate- only missed two things, reading an actual book to pass the time or just because and using a camcorder and/or actual camera 😆
Omg, the camcorder was HUGE!
@@ChanaRo613 right? Esp in the 80s and 90s. They started to get a little smaller after 2000 but those big-ass original VHS camcorders were a beast.
Yes, love the song choice. Stay is a banger
