I remember being a child wandering around my dad’s warehouse (hoarded mess) looking at all the old, dusty junk. One of the things I remember having no clue about was an 8-track player. I’m 27 years old and still had to Google that to make sure I wrote it correctly. For the record, I didn’t. I thought it was A-track player. Now that I’m an adult, I keep coming to the startling revelation that kids don’t know what things are from my generation especially thanks to this video.
Fine Brothers Entertainment studio runs a Youtube channel that produces a show called Kids React. They sit kids down and ask them to react to different items. In their most recent episode, they ask children to react to the VCR player. Yes, the VCR. The bane of my existence. The eater and destroyer of your favorite tapes. Deities help you if you watched a long movie and had to rewind it. No longer is there a need for the phrase: “Be Kind. Please Rewind.”
To say the least, the kids of the HD-era knew little to nothing about the VCR, and I now feel old and cantankerous.
