You may be old, but I'm not. I'll never be old.
60 years later...
@@BookApocalypse still not old because they already died when they were young. Technically never got old
Ah, so you're one of those stupid anime characters that are clearly a 3 year old girl, but "are technically 9000 years old."
@reajlila7595 hey so I might have cancer so that ain't so funny
@@spectoestis3106 oh that’s not good
As a late 2000s kid i find it odd how i can relate to some of these things (especially stabbing the erasers like they are lil ceasers).
I did the same thing with the erasers. I was so proud of my white PaperMate eraser when I started 2nd grade, and it was very quickly destroyed by my pencil.
As an earlyish 2000s (2006) kid I cannot relate to the video but recently I went looking for monster high dolls on ebay I was fucking shocked when I saw words like rare or vintage, and their at least 100 dollars for one in decent condition, needless to say I felt Really old,
Stabbing an eraser is oddly satisfying
You can't stop me
My grandfather had a bunch of floppy disks in his computer room and I'd just play with them while watching whatever he was doing, or teaching me about computer stuff. He'd be explaining what the difference between different image files are and I just sit there behind him looking at the monitor and playing with a few in my lap.
You've never had to insert disk 10 to install one game.
@@michaelpineiro533 I don't know what you're talking about but I do remember having to play games off disks on laptops or the computer we had when I was like 5.
@Michael Pineiro we had one that took 20 or 25 disks. I wish I could remember what it was, haven't seen any of the boxes since like 2003, but it took up like an entire tray in a three or four tray disk box
Yeah that's the Tupperware pitcher. Tupperware parties were a big thing back then and people felt obligated to get something. So they'd get the pitcher and maybe a set of those 8 ounce cups that had the super thick plastic (it was supposed to keep the drink colder longer, you were probably supposed to refrigerate the cups).
Yep I had my mothers til a dog destroyed it. I loved the neon orange color too.
Hey, we still have those cups! We called them our Hot Chocolate mugs when I was 12-16 (I'm 23 as of wrighting this)! And I still call it that to this day.
While we didn't have lots of Tupperware here in then-Yugoslavia when I was a kid, almost every family had one of those pitchers. Usually used them at the seaside holidays, most commonly in a caravan (trailer).
I have one of those tupperware pitchers next to me right now filled with water! Although mine is a dark blue one, not a neon orange, kind of wish i had a neon orange one...
Ah yes, the petrochemical MLM
I simultaneously love this for the nostalgia and hate it because the world I grew up in no longer exists
10:06 is a reference to 99 Luftballoons by Nena if anyone doesn't get it :)
I remember when I used to play with those springy things that were used to stop doors (14:10)... And I'm GenZ. They still sell them at hardware store and it's always funny to see a kid play with them. I feel like it's one of those things that are intergenerational.
Are they not used anymore? I have them in my house.
My parents made sure that I knew about the stuff they grew up with. Old tapes, old tvs, I played with an old (it would be old now) video recorder, I currently have about 40 cds sitting next to me, and I witnessed my old primary school make the playgrounds safer. I'm in my late teens (to put this into context).... this subreddit is also about people my age not knowing what tapes and cassettes are..... I was astonished at people not knowing that the save icon was a floppy disk. I've already been called old by a friend of mine who is one year younger than me... but now I kinda feel actually old for now apparent reason, other than I remember playing with some of these things when I was a baby...
Great video tho lol
i played old games that my dad played as a child when i was a kid, and i still prefer minimal graphics and windows xp aesthetics to this day
You still remember those portable CD-players? Mine had this little flaw that it absolutely had to be horizontal and you could not shake it at all, or it would stop playing, you'd have to take the CD out and completely restart.
And yeah, btw I also still own and use CDs. It is such a great feeling to go to a shop, not knowing what you are looking for, just browsing through the aisles until you find something you like. Every now and then I'd take some CD home that looked intriguing, even though I never heard of the band. Let me discover some great music.
I just turned 20 btw ^^'
@@sahar1213 makes sense. Parents just make their kids able to play with things they played with, in order to still feel young I suppose lol
@@d-docnemesis7925 yea, I have an old pink radio. I can't find the model online at all. But it now has a problem where it overheats after a bit, and just can't read the CD properly. So now I've got my grandfather's large stereo CD player on my bedside table. I really hope that they don't stop making CD and DVD players, as I've got many of those that I would love to revisit (mainly the old barbie movies I had, as I think it would be fun to explain the plot in my own broken way. That, and nostalgia). All the CD players and stuff were great lol, but funny how all of em required specific stuff in order to work properly (luckily the stereo CD player I mentioned before doesn't require rituals in order to work) and congrats for reaching 20 lol (I'm almost there, and it's kinda scary XD)
I'm on my last year as a teenager, I feel the same way
The testicles comment for the California Raisins got me
The pitcher is vintage tupperware. I recognize the plastic color and thickness and the handle shape on the cover. These last a lifetime. The uynderside of the cover is most likelu a more translucent plastic with a sort of crimped concentric texture
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh, my God. It even has a watermark.
I really hate that the poor girl has to go through that. It was horrifying that any human could be that cruel, but it happens way too often
What poor girl? Where? Went through what?
@@It-is-me...Melsie the voice actress for Ducky from Land before Time. He mentioned his sister said she'd shotgun the left dino. That's... Basically how it ended.
@@Volumixen Oooh, if I remember rightly I think you're talking about the poor girl and her mum that were murdered by her dad. I only recently heard about her story. Yes, horrific and despicable, and impossible to comprehend how anyone could do such a thing.
@@It-is-me...Melsie that's her, and it really is. Such a horrible act.
Judith Barsi. Remember the name
im 15 and a lot of these i recognize, cause i really like older tech stuff, so nothin makes me feel old but it confuses me how people are just leaving this stuff behind
"I'm genuinely confused what is the disgusting wad of gunk"
You sweet sweet summer child, let me tell you about the age of concentrated juice.
almost disappointed we did not see the Tupperware for that, we got to see the orange colored one that I remember Koolade and Lemonade made in(both from powder of course). but they also had one that was green and had a mixing plunger. plop the lump of concentrate in, add cold tap water and plunge until mixed. Usually had to plunge a few times before pouring a glass too.
the age is still ongoing, too! i grew up with a pitcherful always in the fridge, and now that i've got my own place (unfortunately pitcherless for now) I've got a couple cans in my freezer.
@@filanfyretracker Powdered sports drinks an lemonade? Still available. Spotted the former when shopping a couple of weeks ago. Been a while since I last bought the latter, but it was available within the last five years. Seemed to be a mix of bicarb of soda and citric acid with some lemon oil, given it fizzed when you put it into water.
My organic chemistry professor once tried to imitate the sound those spring door stops made. His "boyoyoyoyoing" was like the closest I have ever heard to someone replicating the sound of those things it was a little scary
the word Plymouth
everyone: "plimmuth"
Jack: "ply-mouth"
I'm not American nor was I alive in the 80's yet I've seen that specific pitcher a lot, even recently, I thought they were still being made but if they're actually all from back then that's some impressive build quality.
BTW I didn't get many of these not because of a lack of age, I'm almost 33, but because they're just very specific to the American brand of nostalgia.
I'm 25 and I recognized floppy discs and that was about it
I'm old enough to remember when floppy discs were actually floppy. My parents saved documents on them. I kept trying to steal them just so I could wave them through the air as fast as I could because I liked the sound they made when the air whistled through the hole in the middle. I was a toddler. Good times...
Oh, this is way too much fun. I squeal with excitement and amusement at the memories and silly some of these seem. Then my kids look at me like I'm an alien. Then the 14 yr old asks if there was color TV when I was a little kid and suddenly, I just start playing Lexi's voice in my head when she gets all high-pitched and excited - literally my favorite thing in the world to make me smile. It's also very great at blocking out those annoying "are you that old mom" questions.
can we appreciate emkay for their efforts
No, we must praise them for their efforts. 🙏
Yes we can
@@EmKay Bob The Builder vibes
My best friend had one of those giant fbig screen TV. It literally weighed like 500 pounds. When they finally upgraded to a 4k in like 2015, his parents were way too old to help move it, and we were like 16 and extremely skinny, so we couldn't move it either. We ended up having to literally smash it to pieces that we would just scoop into the dumpster and them we had to vacuum up so much metal, but not glass because the screen was like a projector screen
Nooooooo.... I would like to say that it would be valuable but actually they're definitely not because they were so terrible lol
The hicks in America have mullets too. And yes they are making a comeback here too. I'm ashamed to say I was briefly a part of it
I'm pushing 50 and I still skate, there's mores like us than you would have thought. Just have to be more careful as old bones dont mend as fast.
Right? I've broken my spine and had a compound fracture of my arm and irreparable brain damage from my sport of choice, and I'm not going to stop until I die from it or I can't sit up straight anymore. I've honestly just gotten less cautious because I've gotten more confident and familiar with it.
Why do folks think we grow out of activities we liked as teens?
14:01 idk what it is but we still have them. My mom would get mad whenever I’d mess with those door stopper things. But if she didn’t stop me it kept me entertained for hours
I took several blasts of Psychic Damage from this video... as someone whose nearly 40 I was taking hits more then our lovely Narrator Jack.
10/10 would watch again
41, yes, my brain is mush now.
1:38 frozen juice concentrate, you mix that frozen sludge with water and it turns into regular juice but it was cheaper and had a longer shelf life. That brings me back...
2:51 the first ipod was released 21 years ago, not less than 20 years ago
The merry go round one hurts, now I have to be the one pushing because I can't sit my big behind on it anymore. I don't have the hand crushing grip I used to to. T-T
Yeah, I definitely feel old... 3:30 - I remember the Conair crimping plates.... I had one 🤦♀ They worked okay, but I don't think anyone thought of how much we were damaging our hair lol I mean, putting your hair between two hot plates and frying it to get a certain look? Yeah, that was the IT thing to have. I remember so many of these things... When I was cleaning out my family home after my parents passed, I pulled out the VCR and found some older home movies from the early - mid 90's. My kids looked at me like I was more ancient than the dinosaurs and, with real sincerity, said "what is THAT?" They looked so horrified when I told them we had to rewind our movies "back then" and how much of a pain it was if you didn't, which was before the auto rewind feature after the VHS played all the way through. The world is vastly different now, and it continues to grow and change so fast. Before you know it, we're going to be sitting around talking about "the good old days" as a robot cleans our house and brings us our dinner.
That dnd analogy really punched where it hurts fr
The glob is frozen concentrated orange juice you mix with water. It's not horrible actually but I prefer the fruit punch kinds. It's still for sale most places and still rather common in the states so not sure if belongs in that r/
Hey, iPod collector here. That first gen has no right to be in a museum, I mean I use iPods! Like, every day. It is not an ancient piece of history, it’s a perfectly working music player!
5:37 I get the feeling that from the moment the band came to be, you never listened to the BLOODY BAND. Seeing as they're all people who were most certainly at _least_ teens 50 years ago, _that lead paint must've really done something to them._
i was born in 2002, im 20 years old. almost everything in this video flew right over my head. a video made to make me feel old made me feel young almost in its entirety.
i just made someone feel like dust reading that and im possibly too happy about that
I was born in 1989 and am 33 years old. I didn't know what at least half this stuff was either. A lot of these seem to be for people who payed attention to pop culture/ weren't poor. I never used a computer outside of school until 2008.
I'm 25 and I remember we had some floppy discs but they were already obsolete and I didn't understand what they were for. I have seen tupperware later. The rest I didn't recognize either.
The beginning thing was an 8-track to compact cassette adapter, which allowed you to play newer tapes in an older car's 8-track player.
The orange gloop was a frozen juice concentrate. We have these in the US still. You get one of those, dump it in a pitcher, and add water to get juice. I'm kinda surprised other countries don't have that.
In most countries I've seen, juice concentrate just comes in a bottle. It seems a lot more convenient to make a glass if you want juice, rather than a whole pitcher
Yeah.... like why would you buy that jelly if you can just buy some real juice?
@@lanzsibelius its often much cheaper than fresh and as such bigger families or those with less funds can buy a couple pitchers worth and store some in the freezer. Some freezers sold in the US even have a spot for them.
@@lanzsibelius It’s also more shelf stable than ready-made juice
@@lanzsibelius Fun fact: Packaged orange juice is made from the same concentrate. OJ is a bit weird. It has to be concentrated and rehydrated to be shelf-stable; as part of that process, it loses all flavour, which has to be added again.
And BTW: OJ concentrate doesn't need to be frozen. It doesn't even keep longer when frozen. It just needs to be stored in an opaque and air-tight container. Selling it frozen is just a marketing gimmick.
3:35 Shout out to Dark Crystal on that TV!! My favorite movie of all time!!
1:28 I still remember getting books for school and they had CDs taped in for lessons 😂
Remember when having a toy from an ad was the equivalent of being richie rich
9:07 can we take a moment to think about the fact that Jack doesn't know what Star Trek is.
I...feel like the Editor scrolled down a bit quick, and he was actually talking about the original Battlestar Galactica, because Star Trek's a bit too freaking obvious given the uniforms haven't really changed for the entire show, and that he _very_ confidently said "I love Serenity." Us Aussies are known for sarcasm at the most comedic of times.
@@sebforce1165 oh, well then I’m just oblivious.
"I'm not old!"
Recognizes 90% of the items in the video.
"Crap!"
6:39 ah yes, yet another very rare instance of anyone other than Robin swearing.
The old classic Sims one and the color palette killing you from the inside is so relatable
Government cheese was usually pretty good. When I moved into my first apartment, there was a few weeks where it was pretty much all I had to eat. And it’s fully pasteurized it’s not like you can get sick from it.
It made the best grilled cheese sandwich.
16:51 - "...the largest-scaled experience of Blue Balls" - I'm currently regretting that I had a mouthful of food when I heard that.
My co-workers, old/young/new: "So you're 18, right?"
Me: "Actually, I'm 30."
Jaysus. I'm eighteen and I feel like I'm 52. How did the early 2000's have so much cool nostalgic stuff?
ehhh, it's kinda overrated. From the word of someone who was a 2000's kid.
Very important question. What does “jaysus” mean
@@snekcovers927 I'm Irish. It's how people spell "Jesus" whenever we say it. I don't get it either.
@@kennethclark4599 oh ok. Interesting.
Lord. I’m a 90s kid.
3:11 I'm pretty sure that my mother has had that exact cookbook for at least 25 years
5:54 dude!!! When you say "a Limey one" as a pirate. I instantly thought the Lime downloads before you explained it. God I'm old.😂🤣😂🤣
9:57
My grandmother's antique 1960s Singer sewing machine came with an instruction manual that was in full German, which she doesn't know how to read.
She was in Germany for a few years during my grandfather's military deployment but didn't get the sewer until 5 years after getting back from overseas.
Oh bro, discovery zone was like an indoor playground that coat an arm and a leg. That pic looks like one of the rooms for having food, not the playground part
Edit: I bought my GameCube in college in 2003. I remember vaguely when my parents bought the original nes in 1989. Most of this video hurt (and the 30yr sci-fi top I think is original Battlestar Galactica, bottom is star trek (I think DS9, but I grew up watching TNG with my Dad, so don't quote me))
Holy F! 7th Guest!?! We had that, it was brutal, and I'm always gobsmacked when other people reference it since it seemed so niche back then
Tick-tock was from the return to oz movie, which included an entire room of disembodied heads that the wicked witch lady would swap between... terrifying movie as a kid
is that double brackets?
It is DS9!
I honestly feel really bad that I don't know a lot of these references. When I was growing up, I didn't watch TV shows like Little Einstein or Blues Clues. No, I watched shows like Hogan's Heroes, The Andy Griffith Show, & MASH. I listened to bands like Quiet Riot & Metallica on my Sony CFS-45 (which still works) instead of whatever pop songs existed at the time.
I have the soul of a 50 year old man inside my stupid 18 year old body, but I'm proud of it because a lot of kids today don't know what a cassette is, or how to drive a manual transmission, or know who Jim Nabors is.
My guy, your pfp is the spitting image of Lockstin and Gnoggin.
@@sherbertshortkake6649 It is. I've had it for god knows how long & need to change it one of these days
1:36
its called concentrate, and its just concentrated juice that you add water to in order to dilute the concentrate to make lots of juice :)
14:15
Why isn't anyone talking about how fucking cute and whole it is that Jack went "Oh snap I can buy that" and then _actually stopped and did it?_
I laughed way too hard about the stomach slap.
I'm so old that watching this made my back pain even worse 😫
oh my god that 2016 one hit real hard because I still have a calender hanging on my wall that hang there since 2016
I would also like to add that the Xbox line is 23 years old, as the first Xbox debuted in 2001
We need to bring bullying back nearly made me choke
My fiancée is a high school biology/genetics teacher, and in her district it's the bullies that have the mullets, so...
5:59 I felt a legitimate tingle at the ASMR mention of Limewire.
I feel PTSD from having to sift through all the viruses people would put up there.
@@ninetailedfox579121 True, but that’s why I used a crappy old lappy that I didn’t use for anything else.
Fun fact: Mario galaxy is currently 15 years old, which means it’s officially a retro game.
frozen oj concentrate... it's in cardboard tubes so you CAN squeeze it out, but it's easier to just let it thaw for a couple hours before trying to mix in the water...
I'm not old enough to relate, this is just funny lol.
First!
Congratulations my friend
You are indeed first
I'm 49, I hear 20+ year olds (whom I consider kids) say they're getting old. I hate them.
6:50 apple cinnamon cheerios still exist but are now packaged in a green box. They are just as delicious as they were before
6:33
Those who don't know what happened to Ducky: 😁
Those who do know what happened to Ducky: 😟
10:09 this one took me a minute, before I remembered "99 red balloons"
The woman who warned people about the German balloons was the singer from 99 Red Balloons. It was a joke. It was a joke about German balloons from someone who didn't get that that song was about bombs.
Ok, the Cartoon Network one felt like a personal attack. Especially since I remember all of them.
To add to this depressing list, I raise the Microsoft Entertainment Pack (MEP) Puzzle Collection back on Windows95
Fact: SpongeBob is the LAST 90's cartoon still on the air. SpongeBob is also old enough to drink and next year he'll be old enough to rent a boatmobile!
Simpsons are still atound. I eber them on the Tracy Ullman show in the 80s
hey, I'm gen z and I fricking LOVED playing with the door stoppers. that was the shit
at 16:11 those analog cables bring me back to the days where you could split a cable and take your cable tv upstairs to another TV without paying for it
One of the first PC games I ever played was a mid 90's Doom clone themed after Chex cereal. It was called Chex Quest and it was distributed inside of the box of cereal.
None of these made me old, because these don't feel old to me. I still have a cassette player in my car and that sewing machine is in my office.
The narrator, on the other hand, did make me feel old, since they think they're old when they are an actual child.
I love these cause it brings so much nostalgia. Born in 1985 a lot of this brings me back.
That first thing is an audio casette to an eight track adapter. Wild.
Also, that "woman who tried to warn people about Chinese balloons" is a german singer Nena, and her song 99 Red Balloons was about how balloons triggered nuclear devastation on part of the Soviet Union.
16:08 - Actually, we still use those cables today, and they can carry 4K digital video now(Technology!). Hook it up between your TV and an Antenna and you might even get free local HD TV. (Also used for Cable TV)
OMG, I can't believe you went there with the Pizzasaurus bit. X'D
9:19 I once had one of them in my bedroom. My grandma also had one in her living rooms. I had so many great memories with this tv
As someone who is 34 whose first console was a Sega Genesis...this hits HARD.
88/89 babies whose first consoles were Sega Genesis' UNITE!
I went to a museum and saw a display that had a PS2 in it. I think I died inside a little when I saw it.
10:34 dude, in 21, you just gave me a 10 second existential crisis thinking about the slow decline in my health from this point onwards
love the vids some how got here really early thank you for helping me in sad times
Few years ago my parents realized we probably needed a new car after we saw ours on display at the Henry Ford Museum. I point out the car every time we go back
4:11 YOOO I LOVED THOSE THINGS
7:55 The Star Wars movies in cinema in 1997 were the "Special Edition" remasters. The remaster and re-release were done for the 20th anniversary of the first Star Wars movie.
TIL what the line "This happened to Geraldo, and his career was never the same again." referred to in Titanic. Only took 25 years, but better late than never. 😂
I like how a lot of these are people genuinely not realizing how old some things are, but there's still a lot of things that are very much still around. Like 14:00.
That first picture is of a cassette adaptor for cars with an 8-track tape player. My father had one in his '79 thunderbird. He said it would routinely eat his tapes.
14:05 as Gen Z, those were those funky door stoppers that would bounce back and forth when you hit it, they were honestly super entertaining and i miss them :(
Omg that orange Tupperware pitcher!!!
Nostalgia has not only been activated but put into overdrive... I know what I'll be doing for the next few hours.. going down an 80s rabbit hole.. once again! 🥰
(If you weren't a kid in the 80s, boy.. I feel so sorry for you...)
As a 2000s kid, I was not expecting to see anything that would hit me as hard as Windows 2000 did.
The Carpenters wrote "Close to you", that song that goes
"Why do birds
Suddenly appear
Every time
You are near?"
9:09 I had one of those in the garage in the house I grew up in. It always made a very high pitched noise whenever it turned on and slowly became more visible as it was warming up
6:26 Jack, NO! BAD
This actually made me feel young lol and I'm almost 30... well I'm 27, but this video genuinely made me feel young
9:18 OHMYGOD I REMEMBER THIS! I USED TO WATCH ATLA ON THIS THE SCREEN WAS BOUNCY TOO. MY GOD ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE THIS THING CAM INTO MY MIND. also the nostalgia hit me like a truck. Idk why they were so big.
I looked up ducky voice actor and your right it ruined my night I’m almost in tears.
1:40 that's juice concentrate, you get it from the frozen section of the grocery store and add water to it in a pitcher. It's basically a really strong popsicle. Oh, and 7:10 that is very much still a thing; the United States government spent a ton of money trying to bail out dairy farmers in 1986, and they had a bunch of disused underground military bunkers where they stored it before using it for government assisted lunch programs. The milk started to go bad, so they started turning it into really cheap crappy cheese, and it's still around being marketed as "american cheese."
"Whenever someone mentions The Sims" you imagine a completely different game with a different name? I'm genuinely confused here. Is the nostalgia so strong people are mistaking Simcity for The Sims???
I still think of the divide between "retro" and "modern" video games as being the switch from pixel art to 3D graphics.
