What are the things we consider normal now might have been weird in a different era and vice versa?

In the 60’s we used to buy real M-80 fireworks from the ice cream man! 12 for $1 which would be about $10 in todays money.
In high school we used to take our rifles to school and store them in our lockers.on days when we had riflery class. .

Guys at work used to store their rifles in the trunks of their cars so that they could go shooting during lunch. Now firearms are prohibited from company property.

Smoking used to be widely allowed inside our offices. Now there is only 1 smoking area per building, and it is outside far from any entrance door.

I used to use the armrest of the passenger side door in my dad’s car as a child seat, and the back window shelf as a bed. Now there are videos of child-sized crash test dummies flying through the air when located in those areas during a crash.

The above, plus in the 60’s people thought it would have been real strange the way people today ignore everything around them and concentrate on tacking away on a mini key pad for hours.
Or todays absolutely obsession with the phone be it home or cell.

How about NOT answering your home phone? Nowadays 95% of the calls going to our home phone are telemarketers. We check caller ID and answering machine before answering. Use to be we would answer every incoming call.

Letting black people and women vote.
Not incarcerating/executing gays.
Not burning heretics at the stake.

Men marrying men and women women.
That everyone can read.
Obesity.
Thinking the Earth is not the centre of the universe.

Today we find it very odd that we used to be allowed to smoke on an airplane and in movie theaters, even hospitals.

Weird now, once very normal – smoking. Not that many years ago, people smoked in theatres, on public transportation, at restaurant tables, and during college lectures and classes. Office employees would have cigarettes going, in ashtrays on their desks, for the entire workday. Smokers lit-up everywhere, seldom asking if anyone would mind.

Drinking water from a garden hose instead of from a plastic bottle. I can still remember the rubbery flavor.

@RocketGuy i still drink water that way.

My son and his family are convinced that the town water is nasty. It is not. They just let themselves be brainwashed into thinking they must have bottled water. I am very disappointed in my son.
I collect various plastic bottles and fill them up with tap water and put them in the fridge for when they come over. Apparently that water is just fine. SMH.

I was spoiled by the wonderful tasting tap water in Seattle. Water in the Calif. towns I have lived in tastes terrible by comparison. We use a reverse osmosis system to get rid of the minerals in our drinking water. Tastes much better, and we don’t buy bottled water any more.
