Last week I had to explain to my students that the "save symbol" wasn't just some random glyph but that it represented a floppy disk, an object that you would once save a file on. Long ago. In the olden days.
If I told them after about how things were before we invented fire I think they would have believed I was there for that one too.
@futurebird @spacehobo lighting fire to cook the dinosaur you hunted, correct?
At least that's what we did, back in the good old days, when you had a 1% chance of dying during childbirth...

I once had to explain to somebody that the icon that some programming software had for "compiling" or somesuch was not a pie knife, but actually a trowel.
It was, to be fair, a short-lived icon. Not really very clear, though it did make sense if you understood what it was.
As a child I didn't understand that this was a paint bucket. I think it was just too stylized.
I thought it was a graduation hat.
@futurebird it's good to be oldschool but maybe not THAT oldschool ... can we compromise?
Remember the old ways.

I mean, all these look delightful regardless.
But I browse stationery/office supplies/artists' supplies stores just for the fun of it regularly, so I may be biased.
I have a paper "in" and "out" box on my desk and love it.
