Reminds me of the meme with two teen-aged girls, each taking a photo of a pay phone with their cell phone cameras because they have no idea what it is. ;-)
My school-teacher friend tells me her munchkins were astonished to learn there was ever a time when people didn’t drink water from plastic bottles. Then where else could they get water from? How dumb do we think they are?
I live in a small village, there is a pay phone outside the gas station. It is a provincial requirement. When things go s-faced, guess what usually continues to work?
