I remember when I could sleep 7 or 8 hours without waking up every two or so.

I didn't know sleeping for 8 hours straight was possible! Rumors, it's all rumors

With you this. I’m such a light sleeper a fly fart will wake me…….AND we run a fan at night for the white noise.

My Dad said when his father caught him smoking he went and got a big old cigar and forced him to finish it. He never picked up another cigarette.

Is this the video game? My mom says it was really fun but she hasn’t seen it in years.

We have the board game which is okay, but doesn’t seem as nice as her version.

It was the early 90's computer version. This was on my son's Chromebook, so it does look just a touch different than I remember

I'm so old I remember the best way to find out who was stealing your lunch from the company fridge was to buy one pack of Chiclets and one pack of Feniment and switch them out. I didn't lose anymore lunches after that. Someone lost an afternoons pay and it was not me.

Made me laugh even while I didn’t know what Feniments are.
I know what Chiclets are, but what the heck are Feniments? I understand it must have been that made the thief nauseous or disgusted in one way or another.

Back in high school, I fell off 8" platforms as I was going down stairs. They took me out in an ambulance. Besides being mortally embarrassed, I survived intact. My favorite shoes, however did not. I wish I'd saved them, if only for proof that, once upon a time, I was briefly rather cool!

I remember the platforms were fashion, but as a child I never had the extreme high ones. Sure I want those the next time I go to a concert in a park and be able to look over everyone’s shoulders.
