Kids These Days Will Never Know
Ah, the young folks. The young ones. They’ll never understand the struggles that we as the elder generation had to endure. Desktop computers. Mouse pads. Not using the plural for mouse as “mice.” Dial-up connections. “Get off the phone, I’m trying to use the internet!” And so on, and so forth.
When the ball inside said mouse goes kaput, it’s time to cook up a new one! Instead of buying a replacement at your local Best Buy or Circuit City, you’d simply overcook a fresh hardboiled egg yolk for the mouse! This Twitter poster is absolutely correct. That’s how we did it. Unfortunately, the egg yolk never lasted long so we’d have to cook up another one every few days.
