Okay, I’ve got a strange question for everybody this morning.
What’s something that was considered perfectly normal when you were growing up that would seem absolutely ridiculous to somebody today?
I’ll give you an example.
Remember when somebody would call your house, and whoever answered the phone became the official family secretary?
You’d be hollering through the house, “Mama! Somebody’s on the phone for you!”
And if the person wasn’t home, you had to find a pencil, locate a piece of paper, write down the message, and hope you didn’t lose it before they got back.
There was no caller ID, no text message, and certainly no way to pretend you hadn’t seen the call!
And if somebody was on the phone too long, everybody else in the house had an opinion about it.
We’ve come a long way, haven’t we?
So tell me, what’s something from back in the day that you almost can’t believe we used to do?
