I'm not talking antiques here, although some might be up for consideration, but I'm listing things that were brand new that I bought or were given to me.
Top Ten Old Things
10. Sony earbuds for a Walkman c. mid/late 80s. They still work. Sadly the Walkman does not, nor is it still in my possession.
9. A coffee mug c. 1985. Christmas gift
8. Classical guitar c. 1988. Sounds as good as the day I got it.
7. Food Processor c. 1988. Does it work? Meh.
6. Non-stick frying pan c. 1990. Sticks.
5. Raincoat c. 1991. Effectiveness: Questionable.
4. Acoustic guitar c. 1992. See #8.
3. Hoover vacuum c. 1995. Sucks. Still.
2. Reebok long sleeve shirt c. 1999. Threadbare.
1. Shorts. Bought at the same time as the shirt. Not threadbare, thank goodness.
What's the oldest thing you still have?
