Sure, some old things are better but some are shit. It gets on my tits when people hang on to an old technology just because it's 'retro' and therefore gives them some sort of hip cred. Sure vinyl is better than cd in many ways but 8 tracks and cassettes are shit really aren't they? If that's all you have then fine, but why suffer cassettes just because it's retro or for the nostalgia. Sure I have nice memories of tapes but not enough to bother fixing my tape player or actually buying a new one. OK, rant over...

All true things. I still listen to tapes though, because I'm too lazy to get an ipod. And I still have lots and lots of tapes.
Oh, and I live in a cave, I make my own butter, and I think the bicycle is futuristic technology. Do I win?
