Wrinkles.

Having to dump salt on everything just to taste it.

How people could raise a family of 12 on a part time farmhand income and go to college at the same time.

I had to learn how to write cursive, a check and balance a checkbook in elementary school. Then proceeded to never need to write a check in my life lol. The few times I've needed a check I just get a cashier's check and that's it.

i wrote a check yesterday, in real life, no jokes :colbert:

Were you the old lady in front of us at Walmart that held up the line for 10 minutes trying to write a check for a few dollars of groceries?

I learned in highschool and my reaction to this day is "How the absolute gently caress do people not know how to do this or balance a check book holy poo poo"

I could still do it if I had to but I don't even own a checkbook. :shrug: Just never had a need to.
There was a few times when I was younger that it would have been convenient to have a check but most of the stuff I've needed checks for required a cashier check anyways. Now 99% of the time it's just convenient to use a card of some sort over a check.

Though once while I was working at a staples there was some weird card system outage for about 48hrs. The only thing we could accept was cash or check so I guess checks were pretty convenient at that time in particular for the few old people that came in.

God I loved old school Radio Shack. Like the best store to ever exist.

I also liked it because I could buy some crazy niche adapters. Like antenna to coaxial or molex to pin or that funky power adapter I needed for an atari 2600.

Who the gently caress wants that much Wendy's fries anyway? Oh, wait. Boomers.

More restaurants should have potato skin still on the fries like Wendy's :colbert:
