I'm so old I Remember when:

[littledog]

I remember buying a 69 Chevy II with a trade in with no cash and had a $69 payment for 3 years.

I remember when I could afford my college tuition by combining Pell grants, what I could save working overtime hours during the summer, earning a couple modest but helpful scholarships, being able to afford basic living expenses working 25-30 hours during the school year. And the student loan debt I was left with after graduating, I paid off with $75/month for 3 years.
Anybody who tells today's young people to quit eating Avocado toast and pull themselves up by their bootstraps, has no clue how challenging today's costs are.

Drooling over Tyrone Power, then feeling weird when I discovered my Grandma had the hots for him too.

How many remember the first Cinerama movie? "This is Cinerama" I think was the title. I don't know how many were made but not many as far as I know. That was in the 60's.

I know we technically don’t need one but I always feel like I do. I didn’t have much socialization growing up and so I never feel comfortable jumping into a conversation .

I understand. BTW - the dog in your avatar is beautiful ♡

That was fast

Sunday evenings ~ the whole family gathered together in the livingroom for The Wonderful World of Disney (not usually animated) weekly broadcast, with our bowls of popcorn that Dad made in a pan over the stove, and drizzled with real, melted butter

Same except sometimes we got fancy like and went with Jiffypop.
Is Jiffypop still a thing? It would make an excellent tin foil hat.
