Doctor: "You can't hear images."

Me:

All you boomers out there will definitely know about these things. This object was invented all the way back in the late 1800s, 1877 to be precise. Here's a quote from Wikipedia which describes exactly what the fuck this thing is just in case all you gen alphas don't have a clue about it.


"A phonograph, later called a gramophone (as a trademark since 1887, as a generic name in the UK since 1910), and since the 1940s a record player, or more recently a turntable, is a device for the mechanical and analogue reproduction of sound.[a] The sound vibration waveforms are recorded as corresponding physical deviations of a helical or spiral groove engraved, etched, incised, or impressed into the surface of a rotating cylinder or disc, called a record. To recreate the sound, the surface is similarly rotated while a playback stylus traces the groove and is therefore vibrated by it, faintly reproducing the recorded sound. In early acoustic phonographs, the stylus vibrated a diaphragm that produced sound waves coupled to the open air through a flaring horn, or directly to the listener's ears through stethoscope-type earphones."

(End of quote.)

You're welcome.
