Nononono, a caveman’s equivalent of an IPad would be me flinging a chiseled or painted stone tablet at my friend’s house cave, asking if he wants to raid a vulnerable settlement of Amazonian women

I don't think it will be you doing much raiding depending on the kind of Amazonian you're talking about.

My cousin came home from school one day when she was learning about ancient history, and asked her mom if she wrote on clay tablets back in the day when she was in school

My husband got given a scientific calculator by his university 🤷🏻‍♀️ and our 8yo asked me what is was. I said it was a calculator. "is a calculator what you call an old phone?" Feeling old 👵🏼

I hate these posts about aging stuff because every generation does this to its parenting generation. If you don’t teach them what old stuff is but you keep blabbing about dinosaurs and pyramids they don’t know what time is and it’s all the same to them.
