I'm sure we've all got something we want to know about those who came before or after us, ask it here!

    How much maintenance does a fridge from the 50’s need and will it last longer than a modern fridge?

    We had a fridge that I remember from childhood that lasted for like 20+ years...completely rusted out...but still icy. The only issue was it wasn't a non-frost so it'd always be filled with ice.

    This is coming from a Gen Z to everyone who came before me. What’s something from your time that you wish is still around? Also, what is something you’re glad the younger generations grew/are growing up with?

    Millennial here. It's not a specific thing, but I sometimes miss not being available 24/7. If someone calls, and I'm out, that's it. No obligation to be available all the time. I'm glad that younger generations are growing up in a more accepting culture. We still have a long way to go, but it's better. My best friend growing up was gay and was discriminated against in high school. If she was born later, I don't think age would have had such a hard time.

    It was great! No social media, no emails, no sms, YouTube, tiktac- - you could roam free and as far as your bike could take you without the police calling social services on your parents for neglect, and only had to be home for dinner when you were a kid. As an adult, you went to work you came home, you counted your children (if one was missing, you called around on the telephone, if you had too many you fed them and hoped they'd go home). A night in in the 90s was pizza or Chinese takeout and a few films from Blockbuster vidéo. Life was really, really good. No Netflix and chill-it was family oriented. Sometimes, my kids and I would pull out the n64 and play Mario Party.

    I'm a millennial so for those that came before me, what advice would you give to someone at that mid-life age, still pretty lost, haven't accomplished what they'd hoped and really don't know what to expect of the future?
