Modern children are the worst. They don't know whether dictators are characters from history or fiction, they don't know what a rotary phone does, and now it turns out they can't understand a Walkman.
To borrow a line from Stewart Lee, it's as if they can only understand the world with the mind of a child.

Because if you've ever owned a tape player - in fact, if you even know what to do with one - then you are old and must prepare to depart this world on some kind of westward sailing elven ship as soon as is practical.
Take a look, and weep.
