Do you remember the days when VHS tapes, landline telephones, and Walkmans were considered cutting-edge technology? It’s amazing how quickly these common household objects became obsolete.
As someone who grew up during this technology boom, I find it fascinating to reflect on the items that were once a part of our everyday lives but are now unfamiliar to younger generations.
Recently, I came across a photo of an object that completely stumped me. At first glance, it appeared to be a metal tool, but I had no idea what it was. Can you guess what it is?
Surprisingly, this seemingly ancient tool is actually an old oil can opener spout! It may look like something from another era, but it dates back only to the 1980s. People used this tool to puncture a hole in the top of an oil can and the spout to pour the oil. It was simple in design, yet incredibly clever.
