Things You Miss

[BeenHereBefore 1,332]

I miss late night shopping at a grocery store and none are open 24/7 anymore. Was nice and peaceful and you could take your time.

Back when bars were open until 2-2:30, even though I wouldn't go now anyway-too old and to many crazies out there. Also, old GF's.................................

My daughter being two years old and sneaking out of bed from her nap and peeking around the corner looking at me like she may be in trouble for being awake.

Yeah, there's one... kissing my eldest daughter. She's too old now and taller than her mother so it's creepy. Her sister though still gets lots of kisses.

I thought I was the only one. My store started closing at 11 PM a good six months before we ever heard of Covid. The next time I was there I asked the checkout girl why ?

Shoplifting was out of control between midnight & 4 AM.

Now I go around 10:30 PM

Crank calling

 

Digital telephone signal wrecked a whole world of comedy. 

I worked at a car dealership in Maryland. If there was a lot of snow on the ground nothing happened all day. A guy I worked with would get a bunch of us in an office and prank call people...

"Hello Mrs. Robinson? This is Wayne Solinski form the Campbell Soup Company. We are having a National contest to find a special person to sing our jingle. If you win, we will send you a whole  pallet of the Campbell Soups of your choice. Would you be interested in a preliminary audition? You would? Great! Please sing; "Campbell's Soup is um, um, good!" 

Wow! That was great! You are definitely on the list to move on top the semi-finals!!

(Next snow day) Hello, Mrs. Robinson, this is Wayne Solinski, from Campbells Soup, calling you for the semi-final round. Are you ready to give it another go? You are? Great! Let's hear it!...That was good, but I think you were in better voice, the last time I called. No, no, you are not out of it yet. Could I hear it again, with a little more feeling, and maybe hold that last note for me. 

Wow! You did it again, Mrs. Robinson, you are going to finals for sure! Please wait for my next call; this is a National competition, and there are a lot of people to consider. Please make a list of the Campbell Soups you would like to receive, along with an address for delivery.

(Next snow day) Hello Mrs. Robinson, this is...yes I'm sorry, it has been a while, we honestly had no idea of the interest this contest would attract. After careful consideration we have narrowed the contestants to two finalist, and you are one of them Mrs. Jones! Are you ready to shine? Are you ready to go for all the marbles? Mrs. Robinson: Let Her Rip!!

That was great, but I think our other contestant has edged you out. I am so sorry...wait what? You want another try? I guess I could bend the rules a little. OK, Let's hear it again! 

Oh my God; you did it Mrs. Robinson! You are our winner!! You can go ahead and read me the list of the soups you want. OK, got it!! Your prize is on the way! You have a great day, ma'am, and thank you for enjoying Campbell's Soups!! Good Bye."

Yep, totally agree...  But man, to go back to pre-internet at the blink of an eye would put this entire world into chaos...

I got my first email account and started regularly using the Internet in college. Im really glad to be basically the last generation that had an entire childhood without it. I’m always checking scores and emails on my phone so I’m a total hypocrite. But I think the Internet has made everyone much shallower and more reactive.

I would say smart phones tipped it more...  At least without those, one could get away from the internet and being constantly connected...  Without those, you can only contact with the computer...

 We used to call the biotch down the street and fawk with her all summer when we in sixth grade. 
 

 Me: Mrs. Sanders, this is the power company. We are installing new power lines in the neighborhood so it doesn’t interfere with your phone service. We ask that you don’t answer your phones for the next hour as it may put the lineman in danger. We will call and let it ring once. And then call back to let you know it’s safe to answer. Please don’t answer till then. Mrs. Sanders. I’m expecting a call from my grandson, it’s my birthday.   Me: Please wait till the line is clear. We appreciate your cooperation.

So I call back ten minutes later. Phone rings eleven times and she couldn’t help herself and answered.   Me: Mrs. Sanders, this is a test.Please please please do not answer till I give you the signal.   Mrs. Sanders: OK. I’m sorry. 
 

 I waited an hour. Call back and the phone rang a hundred times. She couldn’t resist and answers, hello.   Chris: (zzzzzzzz) Ahhhhhhhh. The pain!!! For the love of God!!! Call an ambulance.
