SO true!

Clink!

All the damn time.

Problem with the old stuff is they suck more energy. No winning..

I miss them.😩

Woah, just unlocked the memory of opening this with a butter knife

Used to be fairly good pizza. Not so much anymore.

Remember it? I still have it.

and blackboards

How did that ever happen to the cord in the first place?

Way older than that.

There’s also something about the food court that hit different back then. And the thrill of splitting the cost of a movie ticket and then sneaking your friend in through the emergency exit in the theater.

YASSS

I still have mine!

and perfume.

slippery little bastards

It didn't have the same umami as garden hose water.

Dysentery.

The circle of life ⭕

Damn. So true for a lot of us. The always said they were temporary but were always there year after year

And yet, every PC build I do for myself still has a DVD burner.

It was the summer after my Sr. year in high school. I was working for Pizza Hut. One of my coworkers was saving up the 5gal jugs our fry oil came in for water jugs, just in case. I was confident things would be fine. We had YEARS of warning. Some people just want the world to end. I remember getting into it with a Mayan Calendar guy at a bar 20 years ago when that was a thing. He almost took a swing at me for calling out his BS.

Used to put my gum in them. Boy, my dad got pissed.

Doom scrolling

They made Gazoo ones?!!

I just left mine under the seat.

Awww

Taping the best songs from the top 40 countdown in the radio on a Sunday afternoon. Always a skill to try and not capture the DJ jabbering on.

I'm the former, but I'm a medical translator because I don't like being around people so doctor wasn't an option.

That show got it spot on.

Pretty much guaranteed. In Jr. High (I'm that old OK), I was in the Special Ed. class with all the trouble makers who were probably headed to Juvie eventually. I remember specifically a day our teacher came in and put on the 90210 finale. Pretty sure she was at a watch party the night before because that's when it came out. I learned NOTHING that day.

Thwack!

My uncle used to play the theme song on the piano. He had a cockatiel that learned it, he would whistle it until about half way through, then he'd make sounds like he was having an apoplectic fit, and then finish the song. He did this for years and they had no clue why. I was listening to my uncle play and I finally put together what Beaker was doing. When my uncle would mess up a note he would slam all his finger of both hands on the piano keys and curse a bunch, then he would finish the song from where he stopped. Beaker was copying him playing it wrong.

I have a picture of my mom smoking and nursing at the same time..

I was a camp counselor. I started these things for so very many kids.

Miss the lunch buffet.

My neighbor’s binder full of over a 100 cds was stolen.it was mostly Armenian music so I imagine the thief was disappointed.

Factory Outlet type stuff in the 90s

Put your tongue on a 9 volt ⚡️

Did you ever play "Lemmings". I finally quit at this one level because it was driving me crazy, I had nightmares about it. I never got into " Mario ", but my husband and son did and I would watch.

Plz egg-splanen😂 no seriosly was born more resemtly and don't get this

Some say that's the Disney animated film that launched the entire Furry movement.

simple solution: don't have friends

bit of an awkward wank tho.

Best Windows OS ever. Had just the right amount of "idiot proof" that my mom stopped calling me for help every day, but you could still get "under the hood" and really tinker with it. Loved this system.

Hell yeah!!

Yup

So many free sodas

Two years ago, I had a computer made and had a floppy disk drive and a cd burner installed. I still use both.

Nice

It wasn't a choice. This was all they made back then, even us non serial killers with eye problems had a pair of these. Either these or those plastic "tortoise shell" ones.

*Checks statute of limitations* .... Yes

Trying to find the button by feel, always having to bend down anyways.

Tupperware!

Dear US America, charcuterie means meat, can't you learn the fancy term " plateau de fromage"

Sopranos, baby. I have the Sopranos cookbook! All the recipes of all the food from the show.

I have one of these in the crawlspace. My kids won’t let my granddaughter play with that moldy old toy with pieces she can swallow and bite the hats off 😝. I’m going to have to give up my FP collection.

Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star has the same tune as the alphabet song. ♫ABCDEFG♫

I feel like this couch was never actually bought. it just appeared in childhood homes.
