This is great!

I'm making a list of things that I did in my childhood tha the future people (mostly my child at the moment) will think are odd or bizarre.

The best one so far is the lack of mobile phones for each person; we just had a landline per house. And even then that was a party line shared between different homes so you couldn't always make or recieve a call.

Turning the TV channel controller knob to channel 3 during commercial breaks in order to get a few seconds of programming time, since the rest of the family is watching a show.
