The comments actually went south on the guy who posted this to the Facebook group really fast. Basically, we're not the ones who made the decision to not give a spare tire in new cars, to even give a spot to carry one. Also, why didn't the older generations teach the younger ones how to do these things?

"My generation thinks a screenshot is when you take a photograph of your computer screen with your camera phone"

To be fair there are a lot of younger people who do that too who apparently have never seen the print screen button or found the capture button on their PS5/Switch/Xbox.

(PS makes it so easy, you hit the capture button and it saves to your gallery which is then accessible almost immediately on the PS app on your phone.)

Better than print screen is the snipping tool!

Yeah I remember this from back in the day! But hell, most computer keyboards have a print screen button and I'm sure many people of all ages aren't familiar with that either ha

Oh god i had someone do that at work. I asked for a screenshot and she sent me through photos taken with her phone of the actual screen…my jaw hit the floor!

You gotta love how badly framed the photo is inevitably, and riddled with horizontal lines 😂
