Phrases direct value that we forget
Who is in the court of 2012 (thanks, Cap), and we can still imagine the real meaning of these phrases, but after a few decades, they have sink into oblivion, and will be studied by scientists. Few will remember their origins. The thought of these phrases came up quite spontaneously, so the list is not quite a list, and if anyone has something to add, only please. So, here are the actual subject.
We are still "put the kettle." But personally, I, like many years already use the kettle, which already is always at the base. It used to put kettle on the stove, the gas first and then electricity.
We are still paying for the light, although the bulk of the energy consumption of a refrigerator, TV 40 ", kettle with tiralka and more. It used to allow, at the dawn of time, has been a major consumer of lighting, today things have changed.
We also raise the phone, although we have had a long time to answer the call. It is an old disk, and before them even running through the telephonist devices required to put (required) tube on top of the device. And as we dial the number? Dial it? It's a rotary phone had to turn the dial to the number of clicks pulses marked the correct number. Now, logically, we would rather have press room, and often even choose.
Several ahead, but who of you presses on gas, overtaking "barely trailing fart?" A couple or three years we will increase the number of revolutions of the motor and everyone will forget about the throttle and the number of the incoming air.
PS I'm sorry because of this nonsense. Just thinking out loud
PPS If anyone can complement, always please
