You cannot fit three sets of headphones in your pocket without them fucking up your phone or your wallet.

You absolutely positively 100% cannot fit a VHS player inside your pocket.

And a boom box. Sure, phones can play music, but not at the same volume or quality as a dedicated stereo system (quality meaning the frequency response, phones just physically can't get the low end without a separate speaker)

Want to really feel old? It's been that way for around 20 years now.

You've had a man in your pocket for 20 years?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, I'm just happy to see you

I'm fairly certain that 80's Joe Burrow can't fit in my pocket

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Just wait 30-ish more years and hope he gets a cremation.

Might be illegal to put him in your pocket in some countries though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Even if that was somehow possible, I'm sure it's not desirable.

Have you seen the size of pockets back then?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

The funny part is that my phone always falls from my pocket

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm more than 50% sure I briefly worked with this guy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah. I've been meaning to call you to catch up. Sorry.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I imagine it's been difficult to find your phone with all that other stuff in your pocket.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I don't where the dude fits.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

idk, the image loaded fine on my phone

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

Maybe. I've seen this image for a while now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

He goes in the old prison pocket

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

jokes on you, I still wear jnkos.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Yes and we’re all the better for it!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Except for my lack of self awareness, which I wear dripping down my sleeve.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

TBF, the stereo speakers probably sound better and are certainly capable of being much louder than my phone speakers. But yeah, miles better in every other capacity.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

You can buy a bluetooth speaker that sounds as good (if you don't need real stereo sound) and still have room in your pocket.

Kinda miss having discrete tech devices to be honest. In the era of non-replaceable phone memory trying to juggle space to hold it all on one device sucks.

Missing:

  • A game console
  • All the maps in the world + compass
  • Gigantic notepad
  • Calendar
  • Entire stack of catalogs
  • Newspapers
  • Thermostat
  • A whole fucking supercomputer
  • An entire building-sized stack of photo albums
  • Flashlight
  • An sycophant assistant who makes shit up just to keep you happy.

Don't forget about fidget apps, so throw in some bubble wrap too.

Who says that man doesn't carry out that function?

The forgot the encyclopedia set and a couple thousand books and a few hundred video tapes.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Alarmed by the intimation that the bloke has been cremated or compacted somehow.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

I mean, i think a video call works just as well, but you do you.
