And we had one of those phones with the ridiculously long twisty cord. And of course it was a rotary phone. God those sucked.

My parents bought one of those massive console TVs that had the TV in the middle and a phonograph on the left and a radio on the right, with huge built-in speakers. I think they just enjoyed spending money, because they never listened to the radio and, I am not kidding about this, they owned one record album. One.
We moved every year at least once and I was always the 10-year-old who had to lift half of that thing onto the moving truck.
