What's a phrase that shows you were both once cool in the past, and old in the present?

Here's mine: I had a beeper in high school.

@molly0xfff You would have been cool to me. I suffered with one of these: https://hackaday.com/2021/03/11/rex-wasnt-really-a-pda-it-was-the-first-great-digital-rolodex/

@molly0xfff @wesley83 I can top that - I moved on from the Palm Pilot to a HP Compaq handheld that ran Windows CE. Remember that one?

@molly0xfff @wesley83 I'm so uncool, I started a Palm Pilot user group.

@molly0xfff @wesley83 I’ve still got the Handspring Visor that I used twenty years ago. I found it a few months back, put fresh batteries in it and it actually worked. Took it to a restaurant and calculated the tip with it, just to giggle at my old geeky self.
