Same. I have the same feels every time the kids get into something primitive that is from before they were born:

  1. You know they suck, right?

On balance I think it’s great. It’d be easy for kids to say everything before them sucks and isn’t worth knowing about, but old technology is super clever and has a lot to teach us.
