Are You Old Enough to Remember This? #5
Before there were the cell phones and wireless home phones, households had these bad boys, the turn-dial phone. Pretty much, to use this phone, you had to turn the dial on the front to the number you wanted, wait for it to turn back, and then go again. It would feel like an eternity, but if you were fast to do it, then it wasn't a problem. Do you remember having these in your house? Maybe you saw one laying around and you asked, "What is this, Mom/Dad?" Or maybe you saw them at your grandparents house and used one. Let me know in the comments section below! Y'all stay safe and have a wonderful rest of your day and join us next time for when we step back into time!
no I'm not sadly
It's all good, a lot of people haven't.
Only 1930s kids will remeber lol

No, I'm not a boomer
😂 I ain't much one myself, only 25. But I do remember using one of these.
It was a joke, I now what that is and I'm a teenager 🙃
I understood it was a joke, hence the 😂 that was at the beginning. And I was joking back at ya, I promise.

The circle was fun! 😂 and thanks, hope you are staying safe!
Isnt that a rotary phone?
Rotary phone, turn-dial, same thing lol but yeah, that's the technical name for it.
my best friend still has one of these in his home. its mainly for decoration, but im pretty sure it actually still works, too
Imagine it does work though!
im not as old to have lived with it in its prime, but my grandmother had one and that thing was more then enough for it to leave a mental scar :P
True though
i once thought it was a bomb at a young age because of the dial XD
My grandparents have this thing, and a house phone. I had a house phone before, but I never used it. I got an actual smartphone lol
no
Ik what is is and what it's called but I never had one
I haven’t owned one but I have used one if that counts 😅
