32 Photos From The Last 100 Years That Are Super Weird To See — Either Because Everything Has Changed Or Nothing Has

1.This ad for a $12,999.95 TV sure makes me glad certain things have gone down in price...:

2....But this photo of people at a 2007 concert reminds me that some things never change:

3.This 1999 description of Robert Downey Jr. is strange to see, considering he would go on to have a major comeback...:

4....But this campaign pin for Reagan is weird for entirely different reasons, considering the campaign slogan that's still used today:

5.This strange boast from an oil company shows just how naive we were back in 1962...:

6....Though this 1977 memo urging then–President Jimmy Carter to act on climate change shows that we weren't that naive—and we've been ignoring the threat of climate change for many decades:

7.These stamps remind us how much language has changed over the last few decades...:

8....Though this list of abbreviations for telegrams proves that some AIM-speak is older than we think:

9.This 1993 guide to the "whole internet" is kind of funny to see now, considering how much the internet has grown...:

10....But this old "Trump the Game," with the quote, "It's not whether you win or lose, but whether you win!" feels a little too on-the-nose post-Jan 6:

11.This definition of "e-mail" from a 1996 book feels a little antiquated...:

12....But this toy magazine headline unfortunately does not:

13.These 1958 predictions show how unrealistically optimistic we were back in the day...:

14....But these predictions for the 2000s feel weirdly accurate (except, of course, the part about "spending Christmas on the moon"):

15.These expressions/slang in this 1983 yearbook feel archaic...:

16....But "let him cook" might not be as new slang as we think:

17.These "top 10" artists are kind of funny to see now...:

18....But this album, which came decades before the famous Green Day song, shows that no music is really new:

19.This Christmas list is a cute reminder of all the stuff that were must-haves way back when...:

20....But this old family planning ad unfortunately feels like it's still a must-have today:

21.This ticket to Disneyland makes me nostalgic for the days when going to Disney didn't cost an arm and a leg...:

22....But I don't even have to feel nostalgic about Thanksgivings past because, as it turns out, we still eat the exact same thing they did back in the day:

23.This affordable Beatles concert ticket that cost $4.90 back in 1964 makes me sad...:

24....As does this $2 high school performance of Aerosmith...:

25....But this old notice about women traveling alone, which is, unfortunately, no safer than it used to be, makes me sad for an entirely different reason:

26.This computer that offered a free Netflix trial feels like it was from 100 years ago, not 25 years ago...:

27....But this newspaper write-in feels like it easily could've been from the last few years:

28.It's a little funny to see all the iterations of iPods, which are now practically obsolete...:

29....But it's a little sad to see this headline from 1968, which could easily be from today:

30.This hospital bill after giving birth might be the bleakest entry on this list...:

31....But I find this old Geometry textbook strangely comforting because it proves that maybe we're not as different from each other as we think:

32.And finally, it's genuinely wild to see this old Amazon box — back when it called itself a bookstore and not the massive online marketplace it is today — but it's also a reminder that we're not so far from 1997 after all.
