I miss the silver plastic era of AV equipment. Like in the mid-to-late 2000s when every TV was made of silver plastic, and it had that set of composite jacks under a flap on the front, so you could temporarily plug things in, like when your buddy brought his PS2 over. There was a button near the channel and volume buttons that switched between inputs, and it didn’t take a digital act of congress to figure out which setting would get it to display on the TV.
Now everything is a black rectangle with bullshit software and almost two HDMI ports in the back, except one has the sound bar plugged into it, and the labels are stamped into the black plastic and not painted on, and with the shadows behind the television you can’t read them. And it doesn’t work when plugged in anyway. Its easier to just not have friends so that you never have to plug other electronics in. Stare at your phones alone.

What shit ass displays are you using?
And that flap broke on every tv you had, so they all had the connectors exposed and hella ugly
