Our household thought we were the shit when our Father brought home a 30 ft extension cord jack thing for the Phone one night. Ah good simple times - no more having to talk on the phone with the entire family in earshot, lol.

Please hang up and allow sufficient time for the party you are calling to return to the line

Shouldn't pretty much everyone on this site? There's not much I miss about cassettes. As far as analogue formats go, you can't get much worse. It's a compromise format with poor range. I did prefer their portability and physical durability over CDs. A Walkman tape player was more convenient than its bulky, skippy CD counterpart.

The new generations are being exposed to cassettes because they've made a resurgence in the "limited run" category, along with vinyl LPs. I've even bought a few tapes to support some of the niche, small bands that I like.

I haven't had a chance to listen to any of the LPs I have.

But Doctor TDK shouldn't we use the Philips head first before going straight to the pencil!?

"Dammit nurse, there's no time! This is the only copy of "Freebird" we've got and the party is already starting to stall!"

As a member of Gen Z, I find this joke dumb and makes no sense.jk. Gen X, and I find it funny.

Gotta use the right tool for the right job.

Bonus points for performing surgery on the tape itself when it invariably unwound and or snapped when taking out of the deck.
Snip off the chewed up tape - fix on little tiny piece of sellotape cut to size match up the ends and good to go (except for the jump mid song).

And then relize you taped it backwards.

Haha, yep, been there done that.

My mother a musician, had access to all formats of music. My dad an antique collector even had a working gramophone.

Just imagine, in a dozen years or so this image will die out with the last few boomers.
