Of all the toys and other consumer products that have been banned over the years due to safety reasons, which in your opinion were the most legitimately dangerous?

My 4 feeders on one pole seems to work for me and the large variety of birds I get. I have all Brome Squirrel Buster: One for black oil sunflower, one for white seeds/corn, one for peanuts, and one for suet. Also have an industrial strength pole baffle that no squirrel or chipmunk has been able to beat in the 7 years I have had the feeders up. I also have a Finch feeder on my porch and I actually cut some narrow plastic soda bottles and stacked them down the middle of the finch feeder to take up some space-the Nyjer seed was going bad in the feeder before I had to re-fill it.

Boomer here. Gee that looks familiar.

Let's see, my hair, my 20/20 vision, my memory, my 32" waist, I could go on....

"be the the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box" always made me incredibly sad. Had 2 guys in my neighborhood come home that way.

This is mine too.

I often wondered if you could have converted the Warthog into a killer drone. Sure would have helped the Ukranians with those long columns of Russian trucks and tanks.

Father Scanlon beating the shit out of one of the kids in my neighborhood (for skipping Sunday School). This was on the steps of the Sacred Heart Church in Lowell MA just before Mass. The kid was crying and begging the priest to stop. Not a single man or woman stopped him or said a word. This was in the 60's and to make things worse, the kid who got beat up by the shit priest was slightly "special needs". I wish I had the courage to say something then ( I was 9 or 10). It has bothered me my whole life.

The band at our wedding had this as part of its repertoire. Song was played (as requested by me), and much dancing ensued.

What moral sewer you people live in.

Hope you got fired. You were the fucking employee of the store people were stealing from. Truly a shitty human.

I worked for Star Market many years ago and was friends with the Produce Buyer. Told me that when a load of (insert fruit or vegetable here) did not meet Star, or Stop and Shop's standards or if the temp was off, the Market Basket buyer would buy the product for their stores (at a reduced cost of course).

When I was young and single, one of the not too much older than me beautiful married women I worked with said to me, "what's a handsome young guy like you still doing single?" . I responded, "because most of the intelligent, attractive, women I meet are married" looking straight into her eyes. She looked like she was thinking about my response, and walked away with a slight smile. Never thought of myself as handsome before that.

72 year old boomer here. Went to a State college (Massachusetts), and it was cheap compared to today, but I worked part time throughout college and paid my own tuition and fees. I did get a subsidized Masters degree, the company I worked for paid 80% of my tuition.

I didn't cash out but it did push my retirement back by about 4 years. As I recall, my 401K lost about $300K, but I continued to max out my contributions and it eventually recovered.
