    When I was in my 20’s we had to make casette mix tapes to share music. The record companies actually tried to make it illegal to copy music off vinyl records and on to casettes.

    If you remember how to burn a CD (or even know what a CD is) then you are getting old.

    We shared our music via cassette tapes.

    Many years ago, a coworker put a floppy disk into the lab computer and played SEVEN SECONDS of his new baby crying. That was all the disk could hold. I’m thinking late 80s or early 90s. Come a long way.

    Did someone say “burn”? Looks like a job for Pyro Boy.

    I have some CDs that my brother-in-law burned for me and my late husband.

    Youngsters! In my day it was send them the album, or tape it on a reel to reel. Compact cassettes showed up in my early teens.

    Career guesses for Unibrow, anyone? Metal band, Navy Seal, or High School teacher: all require being a badass.

    I’m so confused on the parents’ ages… this makes it seem like they’re 40, but there was also an older strip with a lava lamp showing dad young in the 60s? I mean, either way, since everything about this is timeless.

    Share music with a friend? We loaned them the record!

    Mom: “Dear? What did we say about choosing our words around the feral one? No burning our bridges behind us.”

    Sterling: “Bridges! Even the metal ones?”

    When I was a kid we had an 8 track deck in the car. My dad would record music on them from vinyl records. By the time I was a teenager it was cassette tapes followed by cds that were not burnable. Every piece of technology I actually know how to use is obsolete.

    Sterling will find something on his own to burn.

    I have always seen myself in Wallace and his buddies, but today’s strip makes me realize I am, in fact, Wallace’s dad. Sigh. (I do remember the first time I got a dedicated CD burner and it was like total magic!)

    I heard Arthur Brown’s “Fire” song from 1968 and Talking Heads “Burning Down the House” when I saw Sterling!!

    Mix tapes were preferable for sharing music. And if North America had been wise, they would have gone to mini-disc.

    The old Sarge still has a reel to reel deck.

    Around here, people share music by taking out the fiddle and playing it for/with each other. It was good enough for Tom Jefferson & friends.

    I remain a buyer of CDs. Physical media still matters to me. Recent articles about the promise of streaming (primarily shows and movies) going unfulfilled is starting to make that clear. I like that vinyl has had a resurgence but they are too expensive for me to consider collecting them save for a very special few. A lot of the records and covers look beautiful.

    Soooo – it was HIS dad that made the mix tapes; CDs were the 80’s and 90’s.
