1. Text Messaging Was King:  No App's...

You wanted to talk to someone, without having to actually talk to someone? Why, send a humble 'Text Message.' Not a 'Whatsapp.' Nor a 'Snapchat.' Nor a 'Swipe.' I honestly can't even comprehend that now...

6. Basically, 'Disney' Did Not Exist Before 'Pixar'...

Because basically, you don't really know what 'animation' is. OK, that sounds harsh, but still... The opportunity to watch a proper 'blockbuster' film that was 'drawn' was and is a rarity then and now.
