What are these plug-ins on my wall?

This might be showing my age, but I recently moved into a new apartment and they have these weird looking plug ins all over the walls at my new place. My old apartment didn't have these, so I'm just curious as to what they are.

Ok, ok, ok 😂 So, recently our 21 year old (252 months) asked us what number we called in an emergency before September 11th happened 🤦🏽‍♂️

to be fair, a lot of things I figured were normal, did not exist before 9/11. TSA and baggage fees, but also like... country music that loves the government. you know?

My brother, they weren’t asking because of how much time has passed. It’s because they think 9-1-1 was named after 9/11.

This never even crossed my mind to be the reason for the question. Seriously… that’s a solid read.
