But you try telling kids about those times The motor would burn out on the food processor within a month (or make everything taste of burning motor), the walkman would cost the national debt of Sierra Leone in batteries - and you'd have to rewind stuff with a pen, games for that computer would cost ?9.99 and be both shit and slow to load, the shaver would leave your dad looking like Freddy Krueger.

 

And I bet you'd get the equivalent stuff cheaper now (not including inflation). The good old days? My arse.
