Just arrived!
OMG, I had these science fiction art coffee table books when I was around twelve, and I found them gently used online. Out of print for like, 40 years!
I guess it beats plunking down $90K for a red Ferrari or something….

Did you ever smoke these Djarum clove cigarettes, from, I think, Indonesia?
They were classy; came in a tin, like from England or something, & they sparked like a firecracker when you hit a clove fragment.
In the 80s, if you rented an apartment, you would have to completely repaint the joint in hopes of eliminating the odor and getting your damage deposit back.
They used to say one Djarum was = to 20 regular cigarettes in terms of tar.
Damn, how am I even alive?

Are you old enough to remember having to memorize all of your friends' and relatives' phone numbers?
What do the kids today use that part of the brain for?

I was today years old when I finally figured out how to turn off the “Send with Effects” bubble feature on my iPhone Xs, for texting.
So fucking annoying; once it pops up you can’t send your text without having to tap it like twenty seven times.
GRRRRrrr!

I was going through a stack of I.D. / membership cards wrapped in a rubber band in my junk drawer, and I found an old Blockbuster Video card, and now I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

I stumbled onto this movie titled "A Man Called Otto" starring Tom Hanks, and ten minutes in, I want to be like him when I get a bit older. This is just what I needed to see today, although I'm sure it gets mushy by the end.

Are you old enough to remember when a room at Motel 6 actually cost $6.00?
I am.

If you did this back in the day, you're as old as I am, maybe even older.

I’m officially at the age where the car seat heater is for my decrepit back and not just to keep me warm. #aginggratefully
