I am 56 and that dial up sound, the handshake. I remember that so vividly but was on Usenet forums not AOL.
And had a car with an 8 track player but only one 8 track recording, Deep Purple.
High school outdoor smoking area.
Landline phone "party line" not even a private line when I was really little, can vaguely remember picking up the phone and not being able to dial because someone else was talking on it, though we only had one phone.
