My grandfather would give me a silver dollar when he saw me.

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."

Encyclopedia Brittanicas

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 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.

Who here has chased the mosquito truck down the street? The original cloud chasers.

Who still has a huge 3 piece entertainment credenza in their Living room?

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."

59   stereotomy   @   2024 Sep 18, 5:18pm  

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 . . . .

The vastly more reliable manual crank windows.

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

He was briefly in the remake also.

Not sure which is funnier, the email by payphone, or the black executive in a pin stripe suit smoking a pipe.
67   PeopleUnited   @   2024 Sep 22, 8:31pm  

It’s the pipe, definitely the pipe!

Dodgeball is alive and well where I live. Sad in the areas where they don't play. It's not bullying. It's getting hand eye coordination. The movie with Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller was spot on. "If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball."

You got to be able to react and move in real life. Dodgeball teaches you that. Also awareness and line of sight. You got 3 people with a ball, can your eyes track them all? Now get on the road with a car and have this new thing called a distracting cell phone.

Dodge ball is education probably at it's finest if you really think about it. Teaches awareness. You're dead if you're not aware or smacked in the face.
