Without saying your age, say something a young person today wouldn't understand.

.... A clutch on a car. Pull it out to start the car, gradually push it in as the engine warms up. Leave it out too long and the engine would flood and cut out.

Using the revolving Betamax video counter to rewind your old mans secret porno video stash to the exact same point it came on when you pressed play. So he won’t know you watched it.

Actually having to wind down car windows

Choosing what to watch from only 3 channels which would stop broadcasting in the early hours

Calling someone using a rotary dial with numbered holes

Oh the list is endless, or am I just that old
