Words we still use that now make no sense

Writer Ken Levine wrote a piece on words and expressions we use in everyday speech that have since outlived their meaning but we still use anyway. Here are a few examples.

• The tube
• Phone “lines”
• “Dial “ a phone
• “Don’t touch that dial”
• Kodak Moments
• Pen Pals
• Records
• Please be kind “Rewind”
• “Hang up” on someone
• I’m going to “film” my kid’s birthday party
• I’m going to “tape” Two and a Half Men
• Tomorrow’s weather will be a “carbon copy” of today’s
• You sound like a “broken record”
• “Roll down” the car window (I know there are still a few)
