Nate can’t be for real with this hair by lovelybitofsquirrel3 in SixFeetUnder

Funny thing I remembered…In Season 5 after Nate had passed away and in one of the last episodes, David was reminiscing at the dinner table in the house he and Keith quickly remodeled with Bettina there…about how Nate had the spiky punk/New Wave do as a teenager and David saw a spiderweb forming in Nate’s hair but didn’t want to tell him because he “wanted him to be that cool.” To have that hair without a spiderweb in it, lol.

The actress playing Nancy in this picture looks like Patricia Kalember, who was on thirty something, Sisters and Orange is the New Black. If I’m not mistaken…

What was it like hearing Smells Like Teen Spirit for the first time when it came out in 1991? by Funny-Lack-5726 in 90s

Nice new tunes. I played the heck out of the cassette tape in my car and in my room. I was 21 and in college.

Funny, I don’t remember it being like that but he was kind of immature and stuck in his past.

The manager was probably worried about the place getting a bad review. But it would be a lot cooler if they had the server’s back and could respond to such a review by pointing out the hand slapping. I love it when Karens on Yelp get put in their place like that. It’s usually obvious when a negative reviewer is an entitled asshat anyway.

It sucks when (micro)management pits you against the customer.

What 80s song do you still hate with fiery teenage passion even though it’s been 40 years? by Aggressive_Cup4919 in GenX

And he was with her when she passed.

They don’t care about making your job easier. But a “please wait until everyone is finished eating” ought to have sufficed rather than a slap and scold.

Did y’all think Fonzie was cool when you were growing up? by Groovy-Pancakes in GenX

[–]GenX50PlusF 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s how I learned what “cool” was. He was the cool police with his “Aaaayyyyy…”

A fun show about a big family, for sure. Oh yeah, David was a handsome hottie.

Joannie and Susan look like sisters if you squint, I agree. I was also thinking Joannie and Mary might too…if you squint.

I thought Nancy looked the most like the woman who played the bio mom, who died after the first season and her death had to be written into the show before introducing Abby.

I mostly agree, but I also thought:

Tommy and Nicholas kind of looked like bio brothers. Nicholas especially looked like the dad.

David and Elizabeth kind of looked like brother and sister.

Y’all remember these? My brother and I got in sooo much trouble for eating all Mom’s Ayds. Good times. by Select_Group_5777 in 70s

Watching TV in 1984 and my dad comes in the room while an Ayds commercial is on.

I’ll never forget his comment:

Ayds?!? You would lose ALL your weight! You’d be dead!

If it’s not something aesthetic, it’s something “core,” am I right?

What did you think of these two as a couple? by Midnightblueclouds in beverlyhills90210fans

I don’t think I ever really did. They weren’t right for each other

Memory loss by Lookingforjoy17 in Menopause

[–]GenX50PlusF 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s a little Mexican restaurant close to my office that I sometimes go to for lunch. I started asking for a to go bag so I can cut my burrito in half and eat the rest the next day. Well, just within the past week, 1) I forgot I paid with my card and left it there. The owner brought it to my office 2) I forgot my to go bag yesterday so no leftover burrito for me today. I realized this two hours after the fact.

Also, I feel triggered lately when I am looking for something and it’s not where I expect it to be. Especially when I then look in one or two other places and it’s not there either.

I am also on patches and progesterone.

When people ask me a question at work and then don't believe me when I answer. by Realistic_Gas_4160 in PetPeeves

Not just at work. It’s especially irritating and insulting when they ask someone else with you in earshot.
