This is so stupid, I love it

I don’t see much of either in my feed, though I already heard about them. Curious now, which other niche stuff you see lots around here?

Fun time scrums? I’m ootl on this, is it slang for something in particular? I don’t get it

Laughed more than I should.

Also I want this phone

That feeling when Groks definition of midlife crisis of mainstream male also applies to me, a female

Yeah finally someone saying it. All these passive gays and second hand gay activity that nobody consented to, so rude.

Cheers for the spruces!

Image doesn’t load. I can only see a small thumbnail but can’t read what’s in it. I guess my thoughts would be to go see an eye specialist straight away.

Lol. Jokes aside I thought Pauline got a helicopter, eh, gifted, from someone. Or maybe it was a small airplane. Or maybe I’m getting really confused.

Private Helicopter isn’t it?

Thanks! Awesome

All good mate, we can fight another day! :D

Well I haven’t noticed you until now, no offense. This doesn’t mean we’ve never interacted before, it just means I don’t have a mental note for your profile. There are users on Lemmy I can mention off the top of my head but you wouldn’t be in the list; you also wouldn’t be in the “ahh I remember you now” list either.

Yay thanks

Depends on the price difference and the time involved. And the weather. And who’s driving.

Let’s say it’s me driving and the costs are covered, so the trip is free no matter what I choose. I think I’d pick the road trip.

But if it’s too cold or rainy I’ll pick the flight. Seems like a waste though, unless the flight is over 24hrs in which case I’d be happy to do so first class

Yaaaasssss

That sounds intense, I hope Christine made a full recovery?

Books and CDs/casettes were much more important and impressive. Kind of like magical in a way. You can say they still are, but imo it’s not the same. Back then you had to buy them or risk forever losing that piece of media. You liked two songs but you got the whole CD anyway, you got that book just in case and if you were into collecting images you would buy loads, on stuff you didn’t even care about, just because the photos were interesting.

Video rental places had an energy similar to a candy shop. You wanted to taste all of them.

In a way all those media now feel maybe valuable, collectible, but not really essential. They aren’t as special anymore. I think it’s easy to imagine what it was like but if you didn’t live through it you wouldn’t fully get it, it’s like explaining doing drugs or giving birth, one of those things that you can easily understand logically but only when you experience it you grasp the concept entirely. Crazy to think that probably most things from our cultural past are exactly like that and no matter how much we study them we will never truly understand them.

Lol it’s really silly I love it just as much as she loves the venetian blinds

Where’s this image from? I’m getting 60s-to-80s book cover vibes, please don’t tell me it’s ai
