Yeah, I know, I know, we Millennials are on our way to being the next Boomer generation. We love to lament the passing of time and reminisce about outdated technology. But these things, these toys and tools and snacks, they’re all a part of our shared experiences. They’re part of who we are. Just wait, one day TikTok will be the new Myspace.
