Ойын-сауық

    Yes, all correct answers. You guys are spot on most of the time. . It is so enjoyable listeneing to you three. I don't know what it is, I guess it's because things feel almost back to normal, listening to some people that are relaxed based Americans. Everything is crazy out there. Thank you guys. 👍 ❤

    Thanks for sharing; I'm from a similar era, and I wish we could bring back old fashioned phone booths, for anyone who might need them, especially in emergencies, and then folks wouldn't need a cell phone. The phone companies/networks are making so much $$$$$ if everyone has to pay for a cell phone. I love my landline!!!!

    My daughter is 33 she’s never had any social media accounts facebook or anything. She also is not interested unlike her friends and cousins. No selfies nothing. I’m so proud of her! Today I have to call AT&T because they keep increasing my bill and it’s ridiculous! Wish me luck I get an American and someone actually helps me. 🥴

    I will say that today's technology/social media is an advantage when it comes to word spreading quick in emergency situations. Also, if power goes out. Other than that, depression, anxiety, isolation has shot way up. I am thankful I grew up in a time where life was simpler.

    I miss the days when we were free. You would make a call and the person answering the phone would say "they're not here right now, I will tell them you called" and you would return the call the next day. Often I lay my cell phone on the kitchen counter and go for a nice long peaceful drive in my 68 Ford. I mostly hate my cell phone.

    It's because technology reduces headcount which is their goal. Companies will find any way they can to have as few employees as possible and this is one of those ways.

    Technology is great & it's nice to have smartphones & Internet at your fingertips but it's gotten out of control with social media, trolls, AI, etc. I'm for going back to the old days where everyone had a flip phone, watched 3 major networks, & had time to actually read a book. Seems like technology has taken away our spare time as everyone is hooked on it & getting PTSD & anxiety if they go a day without it. Crazy!

    Grew up watching the sitcom. Good stuff. I remember the character Charles wearing a varsity jacket and holding a Basketball. Can't find any proof of that supports this memory though... I relate to leaving the phone behind on purpose now. It's an out of control leash. The feeling of no wireless signals blasting around you is a new kind of peace.

    I can totally understand why Scott could hate social media. I read his twitter page and get pissed at the comments! Speaking on new technology…. What drives me crazy is nowadays to use anything u have to download an app!!!!! You have to have a username and password for EVERYTHING!!!!! I have an alarm clock slash phone charger I got as a gift. It’s been almost a year and I still don’t have it working because of the info I need for my google home page 🤦🏼‍♀️. You can’t get a tv and plug it in and watch either… u have to be a genius to set them up 😂. We just bought a new house and had to download apps and create accounts just to use our stove and DISHWASHER 😩

    The music industry is now saturated because the gatekeepers have been removed. However, streaming pays very little, so to make a lot of money, one needs to tour the country and charge a fee.

    How many times does a person have to ask that Mark move his mic closer to his mouth so he can be heard? How else can we understand him when he's drinking his booze? 🤣🤣 Technology has gotten out of hand. People don't bother learning how to spell because of 'spell checker'. We don't remember telephone numbers because they're stored inside our phones, came with directions. The phone and other computers are doing the thinking and people have given over to them. The world has become a planet of morons.
