I don’t remember phones ever having FM radio as a norm. Yoy could listen to stations that were playable online if you had data. But that was before streaming is what is now.

I get the chicken ick often throughout the year. I can eat it grilled or slow cooked any time. Baked or stove top gives me the ick at least a third of the time. It’s mostly a taste and texture thing.

Unrelated but I haven’t been able to eat chicken parm for 15+ years. I ate it as a school lunch (the chicken patty on spaghetti noodle kind) and threw it up during sports practice after school. I remember the awful breading taste and noodles hanging from my face mask.

I just don’t remember it. Also had a Zune at that time haha

Accidentally booked in a bad part of town. Front desk was behind bars. The room was nothing like they showed online. Later we ordered delivery and they refused to leave their car.

Another time we did a test flush before using the toilet and the handle broke. Front desk was rude as hell. Someone fixed it within in an hour. The maintenance lady said it was common and they have been replacing them with upgrades as they break.

There’s also truckers with over the road/long haul jobs. You and you family can live anywhere when your job is to drive across the country.

Do you remember when you could hear text messages over your speakers before getting the on-phone alert?

And it was these speakers

This was before air tags and tile existed. I was gifted a keyfob/remote finder. It was a set of obscenely large plastic fobs that you can attach to things. They were super fragile though and would never survive on a keychain.

It was one of those Sharper Image products that show up around Christmas or all year in the middle isles of Kohls.

Indeed it was. It was after a 10 hour drive too.

My employer is the same and they added it to my pay when they did have to once.
