30 Things From Our Childhood That Seem Hilariously Outdated Today!

It’s really hard being a grown up in the new millennium! Not only does time seem to move faster and faster individually, as it does when you get older – but the world as a whole seems to be spinning faster compared to the somehow tranquil 90s and 80s. Digital developments like ultra-fast home computers or smartphones have turned our lives upside down very quickly, and who knows what the future holds? What was innovative a year earlier is now obsolete. Honestly, you can’t help feeling outdated yourself! It’s just too hard keep up…

In this respect it is at the same time comforting and painful to look at everyday objects of the last century. On the one hand, you can rejoice, because after all, you are still here – on the other hand, these things make us long for (supposedly?) easier times…

Here are 30 things that used to be commonplace when we were young – and seem completely outdated today!
