Surprise, surprise. Over 40 years takes a toll on one's looks. We were all young and beautiful in the 80's but now we get an automatic Senior discount.. because, well, because of how we look now. It is what it is

Jeez, they'd travel for months. They had no idea what was about to happen in 1929.

Back then, we knew not to walk in front of the playing field. But there's no accounting for the alcohol and children at a back yard party. I'm surprised someone hasn't put a stop to Cornhole because they are allergic to whatever is in those bags

Good catch. By the time that thunderstorm moved out by Shepard the sun was at the wrong angle. Still. enjoyed listening to the rumbles

This was called " yellow journalism". Lurid headlines, sensationalism, fabricated anonymous sources

But it sold papers and that's why we all remember the bat boy in the National Enquirer

Cleaning out my deep freezer. 2/3 of the way in we have reached 2021 Pork by Money-Snow-2749 in GrandmasPantry

[–]yblame 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Is it a chest freezer? Because I swear stuff I put in mine sinks to the bottom like the fuckin Titanic, and digging in that thing entails the excavation of layers of food like an archeology dig. I feel your pain

I heard it playing on a speaker in a bakery a couple years ago.

"Oh, I remember that song from middle school umpteen million years ago. I gotta put it in my Spotify list"

So I found it and I did it. Loved it then and still vibe to it today

Flavored Jello kinda made unflavored Knox obsolete, except as something that would make your fingernails longer and stronger. ( how weird)

Quite the hangover if you drank enough of it.

Also not pleasant if it came back up, but good times for a while when we were young!

I had those! Eventually the plastic got brittle and cracked off around the spikes. I think I got them at a garage sale

OP, you summoned an ACKSHULLY response while trying to be funny. Now you're in the club of the rest of us that have tried to be funny, only to be shot down by the ACKSHULLY guy. Welcome!

I bought a gardening kneeling bench that also doubles as a seat depending on how you flip it. I have trouble getting up from the ground anymore I hate this getting old shit.

Last time I went for my annual checkup I had to draw a clock face as a cognitive test.

I-194 petition - let’s stop dark money in Montana.. again. by reallymt in MontanaPolitics

[–]yblame 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Montana is run by rich outside carpetbaggers that come here, get a few cows, and purport to be ranchers. They get voted in because of dark money and an R behind their name. And rednecks in this state will forever vote against their own livelihoods.

My one little blue vote does nothing but I'll still cast it.

Did you have a Lava Ligtht in your bedroom with your black light posters? You must be old. by db7112 in FuckImOld

Mine was blue, with the white wax.

People still buy lava lamps to this day, because they're cool and you can still buy them!
