I guess I'd be in Ireland.

Whoever invented STD’s needs to have his head examined.

Slightly more convenient than having to signal an operator and then having them manually connect the call — because that’s what the rotary phone replaced.

The rotation produced the numbered pulses that would connect the call, eliminating the need to connect with a human operator for every call.

Seems like a pretty great invention to me at the time.

FBI, CIA, NSA, alphabet soup government agencies are up there with the dumbest fricking things America’s ever done. 17th amendment, 16th amendment, and 19th amendment.

Yeah, but we’ve got a generation of pussies thanks to no real wars because of the nuclear bomb now.

Off topic but this reminds me of when Margaret Thatcher was asked about Germany knocking the UK out of the World Cup, aka Britain's "national sport".

"I wouldn't worry, we've beaten them twice this century at their's. "

I guess the Model T was a piece of shite as well...

Comparing something to modern times shows how much of an idiot you are....

When your parents were using rotary phones, they probably thought these were the worst...
