Not mine, but I always enjoy seeing these monstrosities.

Those worm lights were the first time I ever saw an LED. It was crazy to me that it was so bright it was blue.

Same but I was 12 at the time so I didn't think much about the bulb tech nor it's color temperature. I was just like "wow" that's a bright bulb.

Later on around 2005 I got my first piece of tech with an OLED screen: a Kenwood car stereo. It wouldn't be for nearly another 20 years when I finally got my first OLED TV.
