I'm so old I Remember when:

[Rick589]

I remember the “Help I have fallen and can’t get up commercial”

At this point in my life I’m thinking that should I fall and not be able to get up I’ll just lay there.

WHO REMEMBERS their first cell

I remember my first cell phone

The options in our price range were either a stationary car phone that did not move with a long corded hand held receiver or a portable one that you could
take with you

I chose the portable one that I could take with me

Take off the car charger and the electrical outlet plug and the rest was its own purse that I carried around

Of course thats been about 40 give or take years ago

WHO REMEMBERS their first cell

I’ve only personally owned two cell phones including my current one, all the others were company phones the first of which was a flip phone.

I recently changed it. I have a mixed flock with only hens. But my oldest stopped laying and some lay little. Therefore they could choose between layer and chick/grower feed.
When my chickens free range, I take away the chick feed now. This is the feed the cat likes most. In a container thats not easy to access for the cat I have layer feed.
The stock is in the house and in special containers in our bike shed and not accessible for any animal.

No rooster (can’t). The hens don’t attack cats. They avoid them.

Come over and have look at the cat in question! Invent a caption that makes us all laugh.

I remember the small TVs with the antennas, we had one when I was little. I also remember when there were more flip phones than iPhones! (This memory is a little spotty, but I clearly remember my mother and grandmother having flip phones) I'm only 18 and I feel like the world has changed a LOT since I was a little kid. Man, wish I could go back to those times.

I carried a pager for many years but didn't get my first cell until I got my first nerd job in '99. It was a Nokia 3210 issued by the company. I didn't actually get my own personal cell until several years later. An LG Chocolate.

Still works too.

I had that phone, too! It was so cool to swipe it open and closed.

10 key texting was... A thing. All my phones after had a full qwerty keyboard until haptic touch screens became the standard, because the heck with 10 key.

My 3th phone was an LG too.
I remember more oldies:
1. Nokia with a slide keyboard Crashed
2. Windows got outdated and useless after 3 years
3 LG, no safety updates after 3 years and the camera lens fell out.
4 Iphone 6 or 7 from work, loved it.
5 Iphone 11 , had it for almost 5 years and still good except it needed an earphone to make a normal call or I had put it on speaker. Gave it to a poor friend as a present .
6 Iphone 16 ,
