I remember my old set from the 60s. Someone intentionally broke up the volumes so it said something interesting on the spine. My favorite:

I got all 20 and I'm not even that old. The curb scraper thing is new to me. Just don't hit the damn curb. Not that hard.

I've never had a problem with any car I've owned with electric windows. 7 cars deep and no issues. My first car did have manual windows though. Kind of a pain if I'm being lazy, which I am. Former smoker so just one window was not enough to get the smell out, so reaching over to the passenger side was a bitch. Thank god I quit that habit and got a newer car.

Wouldn't want to scrape those whitewalls.

anyone remember those fake wide whitewalls that stuck to the tires? Also when they started making tires with white lettering and then red lettering and/or a red stripe?

Really? What did you have on him? The babysitter?

Oh, that is a bit tame for a Ceffer joke. We would expect something like "I bet you wondered why he paid so much for your dirty underwear."

I remember a Britannica volume "Chicago to Death".

The Chicago article started with (to the best of my memory) "While many people grow up suspecting that government is corrupt, children in Chicago grow up knowing it to be a fact."

I've got 137,135 unread emails... lol. 455 unread text. I think 11 voicemails. Fuck technology. I only talk and communicate with people I have in my contacts. I hate the phone.

When was the last time anyone saw creaseo treated wood? It used to be on every wood that was exposed to the elements and the wood would last for many decades. Now uncoated pressure treated wood will be ruined in a few seasons if not painted or covered.

Reminds me of another one which could count as an age test:

"The WOPR has already fought World War III as a game time and time again. It estimates Soviet responses to our responses to their responses and so on. It estimates damage, counts the dead, and it looks for ways to improve the score."

Every ex-military laughs when I mention the "WOPR."

I didn't recognize the "Blair" actress because of too much radical plastic surgery, but the "Jo" actress was more restrained in her surgery dalliances, so that I could connect the dots. It's funny, but as they get older, it's the fake smile that takes you back. Something about old dogs . . . .

Easier to precisely crack the window. I still catch myself searching for the crank sometimes.
