and not knowing that the pointy bit what was done before all the pull top cans

And not knowing what coax cable is.

Me to.

Me also

Yeah - and the generic answer for the pointy end opening a "juice can". Usually adult "barley juice", I would have said...

The coax cable person is just naive. It's still being used today by broadband companies. Plus it can be used as a subwoofer cable.

Yes. Yes, we are. Watched a different channel's videos where someone had NO idea what flash cubes were. Or what the slot in the back of the medicine cabinet was for (razor blade disposal), or what a percolator is, or a pie crust crimper....among dozens of other things.

@@petuniasevan 😩 Ok then. *sniff* We'll just keep the secrets to ourselves 😉😁

Yes.

@@irishrover4658 😁

I still have one, use it to punch open small cans of tomato sauce that are a pain in my electric can opener.

I've seen these. It was an old game of chance used in pubs and old taverns - gambling device. I believe the other sides are 'take all' and maybe 'put all'.

Thank you for your explanation.I didn't knew this.

Some people are so gullible.

Which ones exactly show this? Most of this stuff is obsolete.

For real!

@@tinytt854 The bottle/can opener and the coax cable, the toilet paper holder

Exactly! 30 years ago, we covered each of those exact items in my third grade world geography class. It went Somalia, Ethiopia, Sudan, coaxial cable, Egypt, toilet paper roll holder, Libya, bottle cap tool…

@@bco5443 As you said, this was 3 decades ago. Most of these things are useless nowadays, no one cares about these things. In 20-30 years from now on people will be asking what combustion engines, LTE Routers, Iphones or real Smartphones, bluray players, these even nowadays weird legacy imperial units like LBS, Gallons, inches were used for and no one except some freaks will know the Answer. That is just a normal development, new things get invented, existing things get (mostly) better and advanced, and sometimes get out of use and forgotten about. Networks are nowadays done via fibre optic cable or Cat6 LAN Cable inhouse, the 1980s with the advent of coax networks are long gone. So why should anyone not in this special field know for what these ancient cables were used for?

That and the coax cable made me sad.

we've got some people near where I live, who rearranged the letters on their cars

@@da6885 No, because if you look at the angled part sideways it looks like a peaked roof.

@@Colorado_Native Entirely plausible and possible; but I'm not sure the hillbillies with whom I grew up would have picked up on that. I only know they were used to open a LOT of beer in my part of the world!

@@da6885 Ah dun thaut y'all hillbillies made yer own corn sqeezins. Am Ah wrong?

@@Colorado_Native My grandfather actually ran moonshine, on occasion, during the Depression; there were times when there was no other way to feed his family. I think the skill had pretty much died out by the time I came along, back in dear ol' Pellegra County, MO; at least I never heard of it. Besides, have you ever tasted moonshine? It's pretty disgusting, at least to my taste.

we always just called them can openers

Yep, me too. The first chemical free cleaner. The circle at the bottom reacted with the cleaner agent to sterilize your contacts. Was great as I was allergic to most cleaners cause of the chemicals they had in them. 😊

Contact lens???

thanks for explaining the dreidel letters

How do you determine when the game stops? Do you go until one player runs out of chips/money?

LOL my truck is a taco.

@@pegs1659 ... or an amocaT.

carfully remvoe them and shuffle position to give yourself a new car.you can also get other letters from auto shops

I thought so too! Looks like POO!

I was thinking petrified horse poop.

Depending on neighbours, i would say it is a good thing...

@@Brîndușa_D 😁😁😁

Church key can/bottle opener is still used in my house. Especially to open new jars of pickles, just eases up the side of the lid to break the vacuum.
