Back in my dsy we only had non programmable computers. Wanted to make the computer do something? You had to specifically build in the function. And that worked JUST FINE

Back in my day we had an abacus and if you wanted it to do something you had to do it your damn self. And that worked JUST FINE.

Oh hello mister fancy pants with your abacus. We carved notches in rocks and we were happy with that.

Back in my day people worked 16h days everyday and had no time for math or computers. And that was JUST FINE.
