Screenshots were hard, man. Kids these days will never know the pain.

I can't recognise a single thing in this picture; this is how my mum described having a stroke

Well, no she didn't, she just screamed "I don't know" over and over again every time she saw me for five years then died, but you get the point

It looks like a CRT monitor flipped on its screen on a photocopier, does it not?

Oh fuck. I totally couldn't figure it out either. Thank you.

I'm exactly 30 and I had a hard time deciphering it myself. "Okay that's a impeller. Wait no, that's the bottom of something. A CRT?? Oh crap it's on a copier. What???"

It took me a moment, these are things I've not seen in a while.
