Things That Millennials Did for the Last Time

Where are all the Millennials at? Gen Y (as in “Why were we dealt this crappy hand?”) is in the house.

Only true Millennials can appreciate these 11 things Millennials did, that we will never do again. In some cases, for the better, in others…well, let’s just say kids today can’t appreciate how much simpler things were back in the day.

1. Take the packaging off of a brand new CD:

Such a satisfying feeling. That plastic was slippery.

2. Play outside with friends:

A little part of me just died inside.

3. Replace dead batteries w/ partially used batteries:

You want to get your moneys worth!

4. Log into AIM:

5. Log into Myspace:

Who’s in your top 8?

6. Use T9 to send a text:

I don’t miss this.

7. Find a toy in your box of cereal:

When did plastic spoons that change color in milk stop being cool?!

8. Burn a Mix CD:

Mix CDs were the best gifts.

9. Print out your MapQuest directions:

Mom wouldn’t let me leave home without this.

10. Watch a VHS tape:

Jokes on you! I still have all of my bootleg VHS tapes!

11. REWIND that VHS tape:

True dat.

Now I’m feeling all the feels.

You whipper snappers may have Disney+ but I had an entire collection of bootleg VHS tapes. Pus Myspace wasn’t nearly as addictive as social media is today, and you certainly didn’t want your parents getting one. Ah, oh well. At least we have the memories.

My fellow Millennials, which one of these do you relate to most?

Here Are Some Things That Only Millennials Will Appreciate

I may be on the cusp of Millennial-hood, but I’ll claim this identity proudly. Let the world hate us. At least we have brunch.

Now that we’ve killed just about everything worthwhile (sorry American cheese), it’s time to sit back and revel in our us-ness.

Here’s 10 things that only Millennials will appreciate.

1. Ah, yes:

Is it bad that I still don’t know what this is?

2. Checking movie times in the newspaper:

Remember print media?

3. Why?

Because we could.

4.Using LimeWire to download music:

We were so cool.

5. Renting movies from Blockbuster:

This used to be a staple of my daily life.

6. Listening to new music through headphones in the store:

Going to the store to buy music. What a time.

7. When it seemed every teacher had these in their class:

Or those strawberry candies in the strawberry wrapping.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

8. I’m not going to tell you what that is:

If you’re truly a Millennial, you’ll know.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

9. Always rewind before returning to the store:

It’s just common curtesy.

Image Credit: Buzzfeed

10. Landlines:

I genuinely do miss the feeling of a REAL phone in my hand. Not a tiny computer.

The best thing about being a Millennial isn’t the crushing student loan debt or the fact that people think we’re lazy despite the fact that a lot of us have multiple jobs just to get by. The best part of being a Millennial is the fact that we knew the world before.

We straddle he gap between millenniums. So we can appreciate a VHS tape just as much as the newest Apple product.

People Tweeted About the VHS Tapes They Wore out as Kids, and These Will Make You Nostalgic

I grew up on VHS and I actually still have a decent collection, so it was a real treat seeing folks tweet out the tapes they watched when they were young.

I can tell you what my VHS tapes were (are) that I played out over and over. I had Road House and Point Break taped onto a single VHS, and I brought that tape to every single sleepover I ever went to. Two classics, if I do say so myself.

Let’s see what people had to say about this!

1. Good old Peter Pan.

2. Hook.

3. The Olsen Twins!

4. A classic.

5. Fievel!

6. That’s a very serious choice.

7. Who you gonna call?

8. Run for it, Marty!

9. Learning life lessons from Mr. Miyagi.

10. I’ll be back.

What were the VHS tapes that you wore out as a kid?
