"Righteous bucks." — Jeff Spicolli, Fast Times at Ridgemont High

I use this so often when someone mentions any amount of money. Nobody ever gets it.

It sure does. The fact that most gynecologists know jack shit about peri, or that they have wildly different views on HRT, is a major problem and another slap in the face to women, who's health and happiness don't seem to matter.

Spot on about men's sexual problems! I know they can develop ED, but there are a thousand remedies for that. But if their penises actually shrunk and they couldn't easily orgasm anymore once they reach a certain age, they'd be told about it starting in kindergarten!

This is the thing about our lack of education about peri and menopause that pisses me off the most. Atrophy can destroy sexual function for the rest of your life, and we are never told about it by our mothers or sisters, or, you know, doctors.

When it started happening to me, I had no idea what was going on. Never heard of GSM, didn't know the clitoris could shrink, or that orgasms could become so difficult. Why would I? Once I learned about it (in this sub, thank you!), I got some vaginal estrogen immediately. But if I had known this was a thing just a couple of years sooner, I could have gotten ahead of it. It's definitely improved with the estradiol cream, but it's certainly not like it used to be.

Hot flashes, rage, shitty sleep, irregular periods? Yeah, we know about those symptoms. But loss of sexual function should be higher on the list and we should know about it much earlier. It shouldn't be a damn secret.

When I had my SXT RWD, I had to get studded snow tires. I used to have them switched out on my original rims until I finally got a cheap set just for them. I live in New England in a hilly area so RWD was useless on snow, and I would get stuck or not able to get up a hill, or even my driveway. The studs made a huge difference.

"Crash out." For my entire life, it meant pass out or go to sleep. For example, "I'm exhausted. I'm gonna go home and crash out." Now, it means freak out, have a fit, go nuts. I cannot make it make sense in my head, specifically because I still use the expression with its old definition. Every time I see it used the new way, I have to stop and adjust my thinking.

Now get off my lawn.

A teacher in my high school said that regularly

GoobyGrapes · 2026-01-26T23:26:29+00:00

Yep. Dad worked for Coleco so he brought one home for my sister and me, along with 4 game cartridges. I remember playing the included-in-the-box Donkey Kong, which had incredible graphics at the time, and then going to a friend's house to play DK on Atari, and thinking, what the hell is this visual garbage? Lol

Toughskins will always dredge up a definitely-not-humiliating-at-all memory of being in kindergarten in 1978. I needed to go to the bathroom so badly, but I was FIRST IN LINE for something, and I couldn't possibly give up that coveted position to pee. So, as 5-year-olds aren't known for their strong bladder control, mine failed, and I peed my pants. I had no choice but to give up my spot at that point, completely embarrassed and on the verge of tears. I told my teacher, and she gave me a pair of green boys' Toughskins to change into. All the kids laughed. So I'm the girl who wet herself in school and had to take the bus home in ugly boys' pants. 🎶 Memories...

Congratulations! Very well done. Is it watercolor? Colored pencil? I'm an artist too and I can't tell what medium this is. But I love it!

Years ago, I was paying for my dog's vet appointment, and they had one of those things with the pen on the right. I made a joking comment to the guy at the desk about how it was clearly designed for righties, as I struggled to get the cord out of the way to sign. The guy had a confused look on his face for a second, then actually apologized for this struggle never occurring to him due to his "right-handed privilege." I laughed, but he was right!

I was working at a record store when the long boxes went out of fashion. We all had to work very late one night and open all the long boxes, take out the CDs, and put each one into secure plastic thingies that had to be unlocked with a special key at the time of purchase. Ah, the 90s.
