You gotta hand it to the person who came up with the saying that old age isn’t so bad—if you consider the alternative.

All jokes aside, there’s more to be had. For instance, being old also gives you the opportunity to be mind-blown by how fast time passes and seeing things from your childhood can deliver a very fond sense of nostalgia.

And what better place to get a chronological heart attack than if not at the [Heck], I’m Old subreddit which is dedicated to sharing all of our beloved old school things and memes to reminisce about.

These specials are part of the American holiday tradition and you shouldn't have to pay to experience them.

    These are more than just pictures and memes. They are actually also the memories that, say, one of those hulking television sets unearthed in our brains. After all, it’s not just a TV—it’s the memory of how it took 4 family members to lift it up and relocate it into a better spot so that everyone at your Thanksgiving party could now watch the holiday game.

    And the older you get, the more such memories you’ll have.

    These were deliberately designed to blend in with the furniture and wall paneling of the times and they certainly did! Next to this was the Zenith combo record/8-Track/cassette player, a shelf full of recorded off TV VHS tapes and vinyl records with a splitter box to switch between TV and Nintendo. When we used the VCR it would occupy one of those spots and you'd have to switch out the coaxial cable to use one or the other. Good lower middle class times!

    When I was a teenager I bought a TV at the second hand shop and it was so heavy I could only move it for a few steps at a time. By pure luck my maths teacher happened to be driving past, saw me, and gave me a lift! That TV lived in my room for years, hooked up to my PS2. Ah, those were good times.

    One of the bigger benefits of growing old is retirement. Sure, existential dread might kick in, but instead of work, you can now redirect your attention to the other things in life.

    This is a great opportunity to finally pursue your dreams. Things like learning new languages, taking trips, writing—whatever—is now suddenly on the table for you to realize.

    Being old also means having significantly more time for loved ones and socializing. And if you have grandchildren or even (grand) nieces or nephews, get involved in their lives. Not only will that help you fill that potentially lonely void, but research has shown that kids need involved and caring grandparents to fully develop on a social and emotional level.

    But if you plan on being a bitter loner who just wants everyone to get off their lawn, you can look forward to a guaranteed minimum income, medicare and social security, as well as senior discounts, and other senior-focused benefits that come with age.

    In any case, you might end up with a happier outlook on life as your age will entail more comfort with who you are and you’ll be better equipped to deal with challenges.

    My "sick days" from school (which were most always BS 😆) were always about a fried egg and cheese sandwich and chocolate milk for breakfast and a bologna and ketchup sandwich with a creme soda for lunch. I always faked being sick when I knew the Disney Channel were running a "free preview" and I'm sure my parents knew but didn't care and gave me the pass.

    Now, if you want to age well, you gotta look after yourself. Eating healthy is a key factor in having a higher life quality when you grow old, so losing 5% of your body weight, avoiding processed meats, and skipping packaged foods are great ways you can make a significant change to how you feel in seniority. Or maybe even until then.

    It goes without saying, movement and exercise are also a must in making sure your body lasts. Intense exercise intervals—e.g. 15 minute bursts—reverses natural decline of muscles with age.

    And that’s besides all the other benefits of exercise: improved brain health, better weight management, reduced risk of disease, bone and muscle strength, among other things.

    For those who don't know and are actually curious: You'd buy blank CD-R's in bulk (CD-R and CD-RW was CD types you could burn things to) then you'd need a computer with a compatible CD-R drive. For this you'd need a disk burning program for example Nero, that you'd have to physically buy as a cereal box sized cardboard box from a store. If you wanted to rip tracks from other CD's you could use something like Windows Media Player or WinAmp. Then after you've done ripping you'd plop an empty CD into the drive and start up Nero. The drive would use its fricking laser(!) to imprint, like actually burn the song data unto the CD. This could fail the first attempt so you'd sometimes need to put in another CD and try again. All and all very cumbersome process but like with cassettes, there's something really novel to appreciate about physical homepirated media :D

    Ultimately, your brain needs enough stimulus to keep it from declining as well. Activities that involve movement, socializing, and creativity have great potential to keep the brain active so as to not have it age too fast.

    Lastly, stay connected and socialize. Apparently, being social helps outweigh negative habits such as smoking and lack of exercise. If that means entering retirement without quitting your day job, that’s fine—it just expands your circle of friends, allowing for higher self-esteem, greater empathy for others, and making us more cooperative.

    My oldest daughter, who's majoring in theatre, told me that of all the modern popular singers, Axl Rose has the biggest range, and that most of the high notes he's hitting he's actually singing, and not even using his falsetto. So, I guess I'm just super impressed with his skills!

    There is a new documentary out that sheds some light on his relationship with Scientology. Sounds like he wanted out at one point, but they blackmailed him into staying. He's a lot more low key about it than he was in his younger days. At least, from my memory/perspective. That's the problem with their "audits", and it's been brought up by several past members, that they will absolutely blackmail u into staying quiet

    Forget who, but think it was a band member from Motley Crue? Or some other heavy metal band, Kurt and him were on the same commercial flight and chit chatting ironically. As they got off, of course there was a bit of a crowd, he went to invite Kurt over to help him re-roof his house and chill out a bit. But when he looked for him, he was already gone. Next day, Kurt took his life. That's gotta suck to think if you just asked him a few moments earlier things might have been different.

    Menopause triggered a gluten intolerance in me, where I get miserably sick if I ingest anything with gluten in it. So, after a lifetime of loving baked goods, I had to find gluten free alternatives. BTW, they are s**t in comparison to the real thing, in either taste, aftertaste, texture, or any combination of the three. Now to my point: Gluten free hamburger buns just crumble away and you’re left holing the patty directly. Gluten free bread is only a bit better, but it will hold a hamburger and fixings better. So now, instead of burgers, I have patty melts, though I can’t bear the texture of gluten free bread unless it’s toasted. And no, lettuce wraps just don’t work for me, because the lettuce doesn’t absorb the hamburger juice, making them even messier than the gluten free hamburger buns. I would kill for a real hamburger bun that will hold up and taste good, but they do not exist yet. Probably never will. In the meantime, it’s patty melts on toast for me.

    I remember grocery shopping on Saturday nights with my parents, when I was too young to stay home alone. My mother, a SAHM, would struggle to get into her girdle and dress up to go, because all the other SAHMs would be at the grocery store too and she didn’t want to look dowdy. Anytime we went out, my mother would dress up, including wearing a girdle. Though I am happy I was part of the generation that never wore girdles—-though people don’t realize that Spanx (which I have never worn) are just the modern version of a girdle—-I do at least wear actual “outside” clothes when I go out, and not pajamas. So maybe a bit of my mother’s habit rubbed off on me, just not to such an extreme.

    The country with the starving children would change, depending on the decade, but yeah, this is part of childhood. For me, back in the sixties, my “greatest generation” mother would tell me there were starving children in China who would love to have that plate of food I wasn’t eating. Usually it was something gross like her favorite liver and onions, or beets, or any of her other favorites, all of which I cannot stand and refuse to eat, to this day. I remember getting fed up with it one day, and telling her she can just wrap up my plate and send it to China, because I am NOT going to eat the beets/liver and onions/whatever else on my plate. She hated it, but my father laughed his a*s off. He said she might as well just stop trying to get me to clean my plate if I really didn’t like what was on it, because it just wasn’t working.

    Yes, and the dye was toxic and polluted the water, which is why they stopped making it. Clean water is more important than a matchy-matchy bathroom. Besides, white goes with everything anyway.

    Around 1993 or so, I went to a slumber party for one of my girlfriends' birthday. Her aunt (who was hosting the party) arranged a neighborhood scavenger hunt, splitting us into groups to see who could find everything first. One of the things on the list was colored toilet paper. Lol we had to knock on her neighbors' doors and ask if they had any. Yeah, I stayed at the back of my group, behind everyone else, lol.

    My dad was an electrician but other than that he was the epitome of Al Bundy. He loved us but he was over life. Coincidentally, my mother was just like Peg and she drove me crazy and my dad called me Kelly and my little brother was Bud. We all acted pretty similar to our show counterparts. It was a crazy life. My friends thought my family was a riot. Now I just realize we were insanely dysfunctional.

    We didn't have that one in Australia, but we did have 3 clear versions of Pepsi that tasted either like raspberry, strawberry or cherry. The cans were identical so you didn't know which one you were gonna get. Sadly they were only around for a year or so.

    The attention to detail in the sets is insane. There are burning cars in the "Hue" scenes that can only be glimpsed for seconds in the background of shots. Instead of just grabbing a few local British 1950s cars from a scrapyard, they actually sourced FRENCH cars because they would be more appropriate for depicting Vietnam. You only see them for about three seconds!

    " I must, I must, I must increase my bust." One of the many episodes that come to mind, as well as when Cherry gets locked in a refrigerator. Punky Brewster was the shizznit and part of the reason I wore mismatched socks.
