Still have my NES and play occasionally. I gave my 2600 to a relative about 15 years ago. He was 16 and really into retro gaming.

Don't have kids I presume? It's 2 bags now. Back and front. We had it easy. My kids wear one on the front and one on the back. They do sports, but still, way more than I ever had to bring to school. Throw in an instrument if in band. My oldest was able to get approval to leave his saxophone at school. For whatever reason they didn't like the theft liability.

I told him to just tell the principle we'll pay for it if it gets stolen. He's playing Baritone Sax now which is just too much with school/sports stuff. He'd need an entire row on the bus. Doesn't have time to practice at home so it stays in his locker.

Haha! I was right at the cusp of this backpack stuff happening in high school in the early 1980's. Before backpacks, we just had some books, maybe, and a folder. Kept our arms strong.

I remember me and others taunting friends, "Hey, you going camping?" I remember one girl sheepishly replying, "Okay, my sister got me this for Christmas. I have to camp for a while."

Soon enough I had one too. This continued into university. And, we just found more things we needed to carry around.

I cannot prove it, but I heard a story about an Asian little boy at school falling backwards down a flight of stairs at school due to the weight of the pack on his back. Hilarious.

I went there for my 8th grade graduation.

I was 2.5 at the time. I do remember though watching it on the tv at my childhood home. I have a shit memory too from my under 5 years of age.

We got homework that day, not a grief counselor in sight. And it they brought the TV in the classroom, too.

They brought the TV in for the OJ verdict at my school. I was kind of like WTF is this as a kid? Watching a murder verdict as a child.

No idea.

No idea.

Never seen it packaged like that. I've had my fair share though as a kid. That's gotta be mid 80's? I really don't know this one.

I remember them being wrapped like that.

Watch an old "Astro Boy" cartoon that was made in the 1960s and set in the year 2000. It had flying cars, conscious robots, and living on the moon.

I used to read Archie comics as a kid and they were always shilling for Hostess products.

"Daddy, why aren't there any blacks in the Jetsons?"
"Because it's the future."

A booty view a day keeps the stroke away.

I suspect the mRNA jabs again.

I suspect the mRNA jabs again.

My 1st thought too.

Coke laced with Fentanyl. Know of two people that died from it. I'd say with 90% certainty that was the cause. It's killing a lot of people.

I know people with jab issues, but no deaths that could be associated with it. It's bad, but it shouldn't kill young people if they're healthy.

There are tons of young people who died from the jab. The athletes alone is an impressive list of jab deaths.
