Ewww! Punch Cards
In college I had to write programs in FORTRAN on punch cards. One line of code per card then bind them with a rubber band and drop them off at the computer center.
If you dropped them and got them out of order you were fucked.
Than it would take several hours for a little program to run and print out the results.
