you remember going to photo hut to get pictures developed in about a week. also using those cubes if you wanted a flash.
having to reserve a line if you wanted to make an international call
Quoted from pacmanretro:Almost not funny! Lol. Kidding.
No joke, I woke up with a sprained ankle and haven't been able to hardly stand up for 2 days right now. Lol.
I keep getting asked what I did...and I don't know
I was watching worlds strongest man competition a while ago and must have lain on the couch wrong. My back hurt when I got up to get a beer. Then it became an internal debate, just lay there, or get that beer....
Quoted from pacmanretro:Sorry, but Lmao at the idea of injury watching it...had similar debate last nite. Got the first beer, wanted another...but realized I was also going to have to eventually get up yet again to the bathroom... tough choices
I also enjoy eating chips and having a few beers while watching them eat slugs, tree bark, and crushed mice on "alone" because they are starving. But at least I've learned to position pillows more strategically for my back. I've also began searching craigslist and estate sales for those chairs that lift you up at the push of a button. I wouldn't mind that chair that glides up the steps either. Of course I would extend track so it glided right in to the bedroom.
Quoted from Bryan_Kelly:I also used to give plasma at the local donor center in college for beer money. $10 the first time you gave in a week and $15 if you gave a second time in that same week. I forget what a case cost, but we drank a lot of it....just cause we could, I guess.
I did it at penn state, took the $10 and had beers at ratskeller down the road.
First time I knew I was old when daughter texted from her room upstairs to bring her some water...
Quoted from rollitover:You know you are old when
you start looking at pinball
machines the way you used to look at girls.
passing on it because you don't have the energy to lift it or the patience to properly maintain it.
being told to kick the street lamp pole and the light would come on. And I fell for it even though it was on a telephone pole.
throwing sneakers over the telephone lines
tv dinners were rare, plus you ate at the table with the whole family
christmas specials were new
everyone had a black and white tv. maybe a color one too, but a spare black and white.
nothing was open sundays
