Someone said this in 1963. Or was it something different? A jelly donut, perhaps?

Cassette tapes were around before 1983, of course, but they became more popular after we ditched our 8-tracks.

 

Indeed, the last album that I bought was a vinyl LP.

I never had 8 tracks. Went from vinyl to casettes to cds - I still buy cds and rip the songs I like to my computer and other devices.

Flying cars, 50s style clothes and hair, paper grocery sacks, 50s ranch house, all checks out. :P

In all fairness, they almost have the "plug in to any electrical outlet" part down.  And they're working on the "press a button, and off you go" (AKA self-driving) part, and might be able to resolve it sometime this century.  It's the "flying" part we're never going to get.  (Well, and the "atomic" part, but that didn't make it into this particular example.)

 

Also, those paper grocery bags may yet come back into fashion as plastic bag bans spread, although the hair won't. :P

This song is one big meme for Gen-X and being a teen in the 80s:

That First Class area of the plane used to be a bit different in the old days.
