Can someone explain what is this to people born in this century.

It's a VGA connector, used for screens. You can still find them if you look hard enough.

look hard enough

Any box of cords in any basement, attic, or thrift store

Cords. A box of chords would be a radio, or a box of sheet music.

I've heard there was a secret cord that david pulled and it pleased the lhord

Had some VGA cords stored away for almost 20 years now “just in case one day I need them”

Didn’t some camcorders have a VGA output? Think that’s why I kept them

Probably, but most i've seen are AV. I still use an old SUN monitor, so VGA is alive and well here
