Kids these days, right?!?
They don"t appreciate that the older generations used to work walk 10 miles per day, uphill, in multiple feet of show, every single day to school.
Okay, that may be an exaggeration. That may not be entirely true.
But it most decidedly is true that we really aren"t that far removed from an age in which no one used a cell phone. Really. It"s true!
Fewer than 20 years ago, the concept of apps and text messages and Candy Crush and camera phones were all unheard of. We just went around using landlines.
Yes, landlines. These are phones that you can"t just take anywhere you go. They require a jack into which you plug in and they are still found in nearly every hotel room around the world.
Much to the consternation of the young woman featured in this video.
Her name is Layla and she’s handed the receiver in this footage and asked to simply hang it up.
Wait… to do what? Come again? What does that even mean?!?
"How do you do that?" Layla asks her father, in all seriousness, looking around, confused, baffled, unsure what this ancient piece of technology in her hand is used for.
Fortunately, Layla"s mom comes over and rescues her daughter just in time.
But the damage has already been done. Our faith in the younger generation of humanity has already been destroyed. This just makes us… sad.
Kids these days, huh?!? We expect them to have concerns over Maxi Pads… but regular phones?!?
Shake your head over Layla"s utter bewilderment below:
