Vintage Genius

vladivostok (70) in blog • 6 years ago (edited)

I made an appointment at the Apple genius bar to have the ribbon changed in my 1952 Underwood typewriter and decided the laptop table is where I fit in the most and am waiting for my turn in line

I am going to make an appointment at the bar for real and record it ... people are oblivious at that store. They wouldn’t even look at me much less ask me a question

Man... You nailed it. Look at your attitude while using that vintage machine and those beautiful ladies near the vintage machines are no more an attraction. You are tough one. Loved your idea..

lots of love

some little kid came over and didn't know what the hell is going on, I asked him if he know what it was I was typing on and he didn't. This is so sad.

Yes. It is sad but I think the parents are responsible for it. They hardly talk to their kids about the vintage stuff, forget about vintage stuff they don't talk at all. The problem is us, we are responsible for that kind of behavior. If we want this to change, probably we need to get out of facebook, instagram and all other useless stuff. We should make conversations with these kids, our grandparents, old people so that we can learn about their time and share our opinions. Out of all we make excuses, " Who has time ?"

they stuff them in a room with their ipad and go and watch tv or surf porn on the internet, it's really sad and exactly why I am not having kids. I already know I won't make time for them so why even bother?

only person that said anything was this little kid came up with a puzzled look on his face, I asked him if he knew what it was I was typing on and he said no. I asked if he wanted to try it and he again said no. the world is such a strange place these days, I remember when I was his age and going to my dad's tax office and he couldn't keep me off the 10 key machine

if it's not on a computer they want nothing to do with it. boring ass little kids not even intriqued with anything you can't plug in and have it consume your brain entirely.. Won't be long before ttheyre asking what the hell you are riding on when they see you on a bike :)

Oh well that's just bloody fantastic!!!

My head is filled with anarchic ideas right now mischievous grin.
But instead of trying to scrabble around looking for words I will use a quote I read recently to sum up my discombobulated thoughts...

"Very grateful post my best friend. your post is very important.. I like it friend...thank you so much."

So few people are so deeply profound nowadays.

Have fun and stay awesome man :D

I was in a shit mood last night ... having to do the two things I hate the most, going to the dentist than directly to the Apple store! I was thourouly annoyed and @hash-tag ... my SGT MAJ in my discord was trying to talk me down while nothing was working, I downloaded malware... couldn’t get d.tube to let me post... the list goes on and on, I use bots on every single post and said that’s it ... I am not even going to attempt a bot vote I will ruin that too... and watch... I won’t even get $1 in upvotes !! Well I did :) one of those nights my friend ... I remember having those nights before I had discord in my life and I would have major melt downs!! Thank god for discord and @hash-tag .... the voice of reason we all need in desperate times ... I love @ankapolo comment :)

Dentist...Apple store...Ugghhh...I'm sure that malware was the missing ingredient you needed in your life on top of that!!!

Discord is a lifeline and truly the missing link of anyone's blockchain journey I sincerely believe it makes all the difference. Some of the stunningly bloody awesome people I have met who I now consider real-life friends...Pure gold man...Discord is where the most community-minded peeps hang out!

Discord is exactly the kind of mood-changer we need in our life (and they can't touch ya for it) ahaha 😁 Take awesome care, Brother from another Mother 😉

It's Funny you should say that. I am trying lead a horse to water and unable to make him drink >>>

I just don't see the point of coming on steemit and not engaging and am now currently sending a meme to every one of my friends blogs who just won't engage. I don't understand it......Let's see if the nudge works, shakes something loose. When it's too much work to talk, A great meme says it all!!

Because it really does make all the difference...go check out my last 12 comments :) Thanks for the great hello, came at a great time my friend...Brother from anotha'

I think everyone - looked peripherally at you and wondered who the genius was at the genius bar. They could not handle you - your statement -nor your heavy antique not to mention your humour. Best not to meddle then - so u became invisible.

You lugged that heavy machine around! Classic piece!
I still have my old Thai typewriter! I don't know where to but a new ribbon!

Great machine, making me feeling really nostalgic. I had a great time typing many letters long time ago.

Haha, it was worth lugging in there, I am so annoyed with apple products. I am not impressed with anything they do there ... the past two days they failed to fix my wife’s computer...again I got so much work done on this beautiful machine from 1952. I found ribbons on Ebay for it and didn’t need help fixing it, same thing with my PC, if it’s broken I fix it and do a better job repairing it than the “genius” working on over complicated machines that barely last as long as their warranties. I would love to see a “Thai”pwriter

very interesting, while others are busy using his laptop while you are engrossed in using a typewriter, I think it's a very unique and rare phenomenon. 😂😁

pluck!!!? you implied you would pull it with love. I agreed to split 1 million dollars with you and now you're sending someone over?! I saw you sneak in and eat the pastry without even saying hello. I am going to keep all my teeth right where they are so when they feel better I am going to bite you. You can try and bite back but you got a mouth full of byteball already!!

@biplobss we just demonstrated what engagement is, watch and learn please because just because you leave a comment, if it is some generic comment you send to the same people over and over expecting to be upvoted it’s not going to work, @blog-fiction has been here less than a month and has four posts totaling $55, go 👀, than go to her comments and see how it’s done. This is how you do it. Snap out of your mindlessness please.
