Bluetooth earbuds. Took me the longest time to buy a pair. Now I have them all the time.

I thought airpods/cordless buds were stupid when they first came out, I thought I would instantly lose the buds. now I can’t live without them.

Sammmme. I was so against having to charge headphones to listen to them. No idea they would last as long as they did on one charge and my god do they perform well.

The Nintendo Switch when it came out. I was super hyped and somehow the console even exceeded my expectations.

Playing Breath of the Wild for the first time was amazing and even after 6 years the console still feels modern to me.

Yep, every time someone mentions how long it’s been out, it surprises me again. It still ‘Nintendo’s brand new console’ to me.

I feel you. The PS3 is still “last generation” to me and a Core 2 Duo still feels like a powerful new processor.

Vaccines. My uncle had Polio as a child and so my Grandmother was still advocating strongly for vaccines before her death at 98. I’m happy to have received my first Shingrix shot last week. It’s amazing we can get a poke, with something that’s completely gone from the body in a week but we will have T-cells protecting us for a very long time.
